I have a day off tomorrow and would like to prepare a meal for my wife and I, for when she comes home in the evening. I don't really cook, usually, and have not cooked anything really in the two years I have been in the States.
What I'd like to prepare for her, is a nice juicy steak. What I'll serve with it, I already have figured and planned out, but the steak...now that's the tough part for me. See, I have never prepared a steak. I don't have a grill, just an oven. I don't know how you are supposed to "cook" a steak. I don't even know so much as what kind of meat a steak is. Is it pork, beef, what? Cow, pig? German shepherd?
Anyways, any tips are welcome. I took a quick look at the steaks at the local supermarket, and was very confused. Marinated? What's that? How does that taste different from non-marinated? Furthermore, is there a steak that's a bit "fancier" as in has more meat than lard to it?
I really want to do this, but don't know where and how to begin. Please advise!
