Description
Boneless beef cubes
Boneless beef cubes are small, uniform pieces extracted from various cuts of cattle, carefully deboned to facilitate their preparation in a wide variety of recipes. This ingredient is ideal for stews, casseroles, stir-fries, and kebabs, as their size allows for quick and even cooking, as well as easy integration with vegetables and sauces.
The origin of beef dates back to the domestication of cattle, which has a long tradition in global cuisine, especially in countries such as Argentina, Mexico, Colombia, and other Latin American countries, where beef is a fundamental pillar of the local gastronomy.
Regarding its properties, beef is an excellent source of high-quality protein, iron, zinc, B-complex vitamins (especially B12), and essential amino acids necessary for muscle development and repair. Furthermore, by removing the bone, a more practical ingredient is obtained for quick recipes and more convenient consumption.
In the Hispanic American context, boneless beef cubes may also be known as beef pieces, beef dice, or simply stewing beef. These terms vary by region, but all refer to cuts of meat ready to be cooked in traditional preparations such as seco de carne, criollo stew, or picadillo.
