Thai Beef Salad

By

Marinating this steak has two benefits: It makes the meat extra tender and flavorful, and the juices from the steak give depth to the dressing. An essential ingredient is fish sauce, which can be found in Asian groceries and some supermarkets. While it looks like light-colored soy sauce, it has a pronounced fishy aroma. But don’t let your nose fool you; the delicate taste is incomparable.
