Steaks for everyday meals
These steaks are cut from pieces such as topside or silverside and are intended for simple, familiar home cooking. Because they are supplied already sliced, they can go straight into the chosen preparation without needing to be portioned first.
They are particularly useful when you want a steak for breading, quick pan cooking or dishes in which the meat is cooked in a relatively short time.
How to cook them
For pan or griddle cooking, use a hot surface and adjust the cooking time to the thickness of each steak. They can also be breaded and fried or cooked as part of dishes with sauce.
If frozen, it is best to thaw them in the refrigerator before cooking.
About Tolecarnes
Tolecarnes is a family-run cattle farm based in Menasalbas, at the foot of the Montes de Toledo, with three generations of experience raising cattle.
Its calves are raised by the farm from birth and spend much of the year grazing freely on its dehesa in the Montes de Toledo. The wetter conditions on the northern side of the mountains provide natural pasture for a large part of the year, allowing the cattle to remain outdoors and active in an open environment.
During winter, when fresh pasture is less abundant, their diet is supplemented with forage collected during the more productive months and with feed produced by Cooperativa Valle de Mena, of which Tolecarnes is a member. This feed is made from plant-based ingredients, giving the farm greater control over the animals' diet.
Tolecarnes oversees the farming process from the birth of its calves through to the sale of the meat, maintaining a traditional approach to cattle farming closely connected to the Montes de Toledo.
