    Ingredients:

    1/2 cup soy sauce
    1/2 cup sherry
    3-4 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
    One 1" piece fresh ginger root, coarsely chopped
    2-3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
    1 cup vegetable oil

    Preparation:

    Place soy sauce, sherry, Worcestershire sauce, ginger root and garlic in a food processor and pulse until all ingredients are completely chopped. While the food processor is running, slowly add 1 cup of vegetable oil (the oil will emulsify the marinade and thicken it).

    Place chunks of beef in a large ziplock bag; pour marinade into the bag and place in the refrigerator.

    Chef's Notes:

    It's fun to make garnishes to serve with your beef:

    • If you like hot peppers, you can make a red-pepper flower (figure A). Just slice the pepper vertically into 8 slices until it looks like a flower. Core out the inner flesh of the pepper, place in a bowl of water and set in the refrigerator (if you want to serve it sooner, place in a bowl of ice water). Note: It's a good idea to wear gloves when working with peppers.

    • Scrape some of the leaves from a stem of rosemary; sharpen the end of the stem and use it to skewer 3 button mushrooms (figure B).

    • To make a tomato rose (figure C), remove the peel from a tomato in a strip about 1/2" to 1" wide (peel carefully so you'll have one long piece). Starting at one end, roll the strip so it will "bloom" outward. This takes a little time; you may need to practice until you master it.

    • For steak-sauce lovers, remove the tops from cherry tomatoes and scoop out the insides. Fill the tomatoes with steak sauce and garnish with a little sprig of parsley (figure D).

    We at DIY believe all of the recipes from All in Good Taste are accurate and reliable, but since we have not tested them personally, we can claim no responsibility if the desired results are not achieved.
