Description

Beef tenderloin steaks are thin, tender cuts taken from the central part of the beef loin, one of the softest and most prized areas of the cow. This ingredient is highly valued in cooking for its delicate texture and mild flavor, making it an ideal choice for preparing quick dishes, whether grilled, sautéed, or pan-seared.

Beef tenderloin comes primarily from cuts such as filet mignon or tenderloin. Its origin and use are common in many cuisines around the world, particularly in Latin American cooking, where this type of steak is used in both traditional and modern recipes alike.

Among its properties, it stands out for its high protein content and low fat content compared to other beef cuts, making it a healthy option for those seeking a balanced diet without sacrificing flavor or texture in their dishes.

In different Latin American countries, beef tenderloin steaks may also be known as:

  • Filete de solomillo
  • Bistec de lomo
  • Lomo fino
  • Chuleta de res (in some contexts)

This ingredient is essential in recipes that require quick and precise cooking to maintain its juiciness and tenderness, making it ideal for preparations such as grilled steaks, stroganoff, stir-fries, or even for stuffing and rolling in gourmet dishes.
