Step outside of your comfort zone and master a popular raw dish with the guidance from Peter Agostinelli, New England native and executive chef at Grill 23 & Bar. The talented chef is taking on Boston magazine’s Instagram on Thursday, September 3rd at 4:00pm to walk you through the ins and outs of making the simple yet deliciously sophisticated steak tartare. Varieties of this dish are found in many cuisines around the world in Europe, South America, Africa and North America — and you are welcome to learn how to make the Grill 23 style.

This version (ingredients outlined below) incorporates Kobe beef, quail egg, salt & vinegar potato chips and truffles — which all pair beautifully with a cold glass of Stella Artois.
