Preparation
-
The day before, make the blackberry condiment: pour the white vinegar into a saucepan with the sugar and bring to the boil. Add the cleaned blackberries and mash with a fork. Leave to macerate overnight in a cool place. The next day, filter and chill in a jar or bottle.
-
Also the day before, peel the red onion and cut in half. Cut each half into quarters to form petals, then place in a glass jar with the berries.
-
Pour the sugar, white vinegar and 15 cl water into a small saucepan. Bring to the boil and pour over the onions while still hot. Leave to cool, then store in a cool place for up to 1 month.
-
Still the day before, gently pat the meat dry and wrap it completely in film. Place in the freezer.
-
Just before serving, slice the beef as thinly as possible using a sharp knife or mandolin. Arrange slices as you go on serving plates.
-
Add fresh herbs, sliced fresh blackberries, thinly sliced radishes, a few red onion pickles, lemon wedges and capers.
-
Mix the olive oil with the juice of half a lemon and 7 cl of blackberry condiment. Drizzle this vinaigrette over the carpaccios, then season with a turn of the pepper mill and a generous pinch of Le Guérandais Flower of Salt.
Tip: Among the cuts of meat that can be used for this recipe: chuck flap (American cut), rond de gite, tendre de tranche, etc...
