FAQs

Q: Can I make this recipe ahead of time?
A: While the steak is best cooked fresh, you can prepare the miso brown butter and crispy mushrooms ahead of time. Just reheat them when you’re ready to serve.

Q: What can I substitute for black garlic paste?
A: If you can’t find black garlic paste, you can use regular garlic paste or roasted garlic for a slightly different flavor profile.

Q: Can I use another cut of steak?
A: Yes! While NY strip steak is delicious, you can use ribeye, sirloin, or even flank steak if that’s what you have on hand. Just adjust the cooking time according to the thickness of the cut.
