After 30 years on the line in Chinese kitchens, I can tell you there's a second way to cook a steak that nobody on a cooking show ever mentions. In this video I go through 8 forgotten tricks from the Chinese kitchen — the two teaspoon soy marinade that browns a steak in 90 seconds a side, why your garlic turns bitter, the black pepper sauce that takes 30 seconds, and the resting rule I told people for years that I was wrong about. Then there's the one decision that takes five seconds with a knife, and it's where the two kitchens completely disagree. A $14 strip steak becomes 20 cubes with a crust on all six faces. I also show the three-ingredient dipping dish that goes beside shaking beef in Vietnamese kitchens, and I'm honest about when the steak house is right. If you're cooking a one inch supermarket steak on a home stove, this is the method I'd use.
