About Bistecca

Bistecca, an Italian term for steak, typically refers to a grilled or pan-seared cut of beef, often seasoned simply with salt, pepper, and olive oil to highlight its natural flavor. It's a staple in Italian cuisine, famously featured in dishes like "Bistecca alla Fiorentina," a traditional Florentine T-bone steak cooked rare and served with fresh herbs. Rich in protein, iron, and B vitamins, Bistecca supports muscle development and energy production. Olive oil and herbs often accompanying the dish add heart-healthy fats and antioxidants. However, its nutritional profile depends on preparation; excessive seasoning or fatty cuts may elevate sodium and saturated fat levels, posing health concerns in large portions. When enjoyed moderately and paired with vegetables or a salad, Bistecca offers a flavorful and balanced option within a Mediterranean-style diet.
