How to cook the perfect steak.

There's nothing like a juicy, perfectly cooked steak. But how do you achieve this culinary perfection? With a little bit of know-how, cooking the perfect steak is easy. First, start with a high quality cut of meat. If you're using a thinner cut like a flank or skirt steak, be sure to tenderize it before cooking. Next, get your steak to the right temperature. The general rule of thumb is to cook your steak for two minutes per side at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. But this will vary depending on the thickness of your steak and your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness, or use the "touch test": press your finger into the cooked steak - it should feel soft for rare, slightly firmer for medium, and very firm for well-done. Once your steak is cooked to perfection, let it rest for a few minutes before cutting into it. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier, more flavorful steak. Now, enjoy your perfectly cooked steak! #perfect #steak
