COOKING TIPS FOR OSTRICH STEAK

OSTRICH COOKING TIPS AND MARINADE RECIPES

Ostrich is a very lean meat that looks more like a beef steak than poultry. It has a subtle flavor with no gamey taste. Ostrich is best served cooked rare to medium-rare. It cooks quickly so don’t take your eyes off the steak while it’s frying. Ostrich steak needs about 2½ minutes a side to cook up to a nice medium-rare. It should have a dark pink interior when sliced. You can serve ostrich with any vegetable side dish.  A light gravy made from the marinade makes it even more delicious.
Ostrich has a dark pinkish meat and a very subtle flavor. It cooks quickly and will be wasted if you try you drown it in strong flavor. Fry it with lots of butter and use a sauce such as bechamel or light wine sauce.

The meat continues to cook a bit after being removed from the heat source, that's why it's important not to cook it past rare to medium-rare. Letting it "rest" before slicing gives the meat time to reabsorb the juices that would otherwise be lost. When you cut it and eat it the meat will be juicier and tastier.

 Ingredients
Rub it with a mixture of garlic, pepper, oil and let it sit in the fridge for up to 5 hours.
Or Marinade

Marinades for Ostrich Steak

2 ostrich filets

2 tbs. soy sauce
1 tsp. ginger grated
1 tbs. sesame Oil
splash of rice wine
Splash of orange juice or pineapple juice
Marinade for Ostrich Filet

2 ostrich filets
splash of wine
cup of chicken stock
2 garlic cloves chopped
1 tbs balsamic vinegar
2 Rosemary sprigs
2 Thyme sprigs
2 tbs oil
squeeze of lemon

Instructions
1 - Heat a skillet to hot, add a little olive oil or butter.
2 -Cook filets for 2 ½ minutes per side
3 - Remove and place on a plate. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes
4 - Add the marinade to the hot skillet
5 - cook uncovered to the right consistency, not to watery but not too thick
6 - Slice filets across the grain
7 - Pour sauce over the filets
8 - Serve with Rice or potatoes and vegetables.

Notes
Wine is a great marinade for ostrich. Whether you use white, red or a rose it makes the meat tender and tasty without overpowering the ostrich. If you don't have wine, use a vinaigrette. Mixing together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, garlic and lemon juice makes for a good marinade too.

Ostrich is very lean. It tastes very much like steak as opposed to fowl. It's a bit on the bland side so it's a good idea to use a light gravy or sauce.

Kitchen Hint of the Day!

In a pickle.............


Instead of tossing out that jar of pickle juice after using the last pickle, use the tangy liquid to make a new condiment. Add thinly sliced onions to the juice and let them marinate in the fridge for a few days. The drained onions can be used a topping for hot dogs pr hamburgers or in salads. This method also works well with the spicy packing juice from vinegar peppers.

Kitchen Hint of the Day!

Try a marinade.....

Marinate red meats in wine to tenderize. Marinate chicken in buttermilk to tenderize.

Kitchen Hint of the Day!

When cooking with Beer......

Beer has wonderful tenderizing properties, making it an excellent choice for a marinade for tougher cuts of meat. Baked goods using beer have a more moist texture and a longer shelf life.

Kitchen Hint of the Day!

Try some of these tips when preparing your favorite home-cooked meals to make them lower in fat and more healthful.....


* To mimic the flavor and creaminess of sour cream, use buttermilk instead. It's as low in calories and fat as 1-percent milk.

* Sauté food in a non-stick pan using water, broth, juice, wine, or cooking spray.

* Stir fry meat and vegetables in a non-stick pan or wok using broth or a dab of olive or canola oil.

* Use Canadian-style bacon. Ounce for ounce, it has 116 fewer calories than regular bacon.

* Bake foods using non-fat marinades to retain moisture.

Kitchen Hint of the Day!

We've all came across this problem when grilling; When grilling meat, sometimes it sticks to the grill even though you cleaned the grill thoroughly and oiled it well. When grilling items that do not have any external spices or marinades, try spraying the meat with non-stick cooking spray, such as Pam, before you place on the grill. It will not only help keep it from sticking, but it will also help keep the meat from drying out. When you go to turn it, if it still appears to be sticking, let it cook for a few more minutes until you can lift it without any resistance.
