Beef
Carne de res in Spanish
Beef pairs well with other protein sources, such as lamb, pork, and chicken. It also pairs well with vegetables, such as mushrooms, carrots, and potatoes. Beef can be cooked in many different ways, such as grilled, roasted, or stewed. It can also be eaten raw, as in steak tartare. The type of beef will also dictate how it should be cooked. For example, leaner cuts of beef should be cooked for a shorter amount of time, while tougher cuts of beef should be cooked for a longer amount of time.
