Beef tartare with onions and lemon - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute beef with high-quality, fresh tuna or salmon for a seafood version. Ensure the fish is sushi-grade to minimize health risks.
Beef tartare is best eaten immediately, but if needed, store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. The texture and freshness decline quickly.
For a vegetarian option, try finely diced mushrooms (like portobello) marinated in soy sauce and lemon juice. Add capers and onions for a similar flavor profile.
Freezing is not recommended as it drastically alters the texture of raw meat, making it mushy and unappetizing upon thawing.
Serve with toasted bread, crackers, or crispy fries. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for extra color and flavor.
Simply halve or quarter the ingredients. For example, use 1 egg yolk and reduce the beef and veggies proportionally for a smaller portion.
Absolutely! Try adding Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, or chopped fresh herbs like tarragon or dill for a personalized touch.
No, raw beef carries a risk of foodborne illnesses. Pregnant individuals or those with compromised immunity should avoid it or opt for cooked alternatives.
