Beef Rib with anchovies
The completed dish was strange but strangely delicious. It felt both peasant-like and cosmopolitan, its ingredients unattached to any season. It’s neither hot or cool. It’s doesn’t feel like a starter nor a main course. And the pairing of beef and anchovies is foreign to most palates.
