You Should Be Seasoning Your Steak With One Hot Drink
BY Julia Holland
While steak is a luxurious protein full of flavor, you can make the flavor shine further by simply using matcha green tea powder like a spice in a dry rub or marinade.
Matcha's grassy, bitter, and savory profile is an umami powerhouse that enhances steak's savoriness and gives it a meaty boost — all without interfering with its tasting notes.
You can simply rub the matcha over the steak before you sear or grill it or let it dissolve into a marinade. For the best experience, choose a high-quality organic matcha.
Salt will bring out the flavors in both the meat and the matcha, so you can even make matcha salt by blending a teaspoon of matcha powder into a tablespoon of coarse sea salt.
