009: MICROWAVE RIBEYE STEAK

The Microwave Flame — Gourmet Ribeye from the Sacred Machine

“It’s not about the heat. It’s about the reverence. Even in a microwave, the steak can sing.”

🪔 What Is This Method?

This is not heresy. It’s modern myth. A thick-cut, grassfed ribeye steak — aged by nature, kissed by salt, cooked in the **sacred portal of microwave** — becomes a gourmet revelation with the right structure. Steam, rest, sear. Ceremony, not chaos. Done with precision, it delivers juicy tenderness and ancestral satisfaction in under 10 minutes.

• Symbol Element 1: Salt Rub — primal memory activation
• Symbol Element 2: Ghee Glaze — richness meets reverence
• Visual Cue: Deep caramel crust, pink center, juices pooling like prayer

✍️ How to Create or Use It

• Materials: 1 grassfed ribeye (¾–1″ thick), sea salt, black pepper, ghee or tallow, glass microwave plate, paper towel, cast iron skillet (optional for post-sear)

1. Step 1: Salt the steak heavily on both sides. Let sit at room temperature for 20–30 minutes. Bless the meat with intention: “From land, to life, to flame.”
2. Step 2: Wrap loosely in parchment or microwave-safe cover. Microwave at 50–60% power for 5–7 minutes, flipping at halfway. (Internal temp: aim for 110–115°F — pre-medium rare.)
3. Step 3: Let rest 2–3 minutes wrapped. Then flash-sear in hot cast iron or torch the surface. Baste with ghee or tallow. Add fresh thyme or garlic if desired.
4. Step 4: Slice against the grain. Sprinkle Maldon salt or finishing oil. Serve on warm ceramic with roasted garlic or mustard greens.
