beef carpaccio

Thinly sliced raw

Beef carpaccio is a dish of raw beef sliced paper-thin and served cold, typically drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice, often topped with arugula and shaved Parmesan.

The meat is usually tenderloin, briefly frozen to allow precise slicing.

Like other carpaccios, it originated in Italy as an appetizer: We started with beef carpaccio and a bottle of Barolo.
