Ingredients

1 kg beef
2 tbsp salt
½ tsp Herbes de Provence
¼ tsp pepper ground black
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 cup water

Instructions

Prepare everything necessary. For this recipe, it is best to take a tenderloin, but meat from the hip will also work. Trim the piece to be of even thickness if possible.
Take a bowl or container large enough to completely submerge the meat. Place the beef in it, measure how much water is needed to cover it. For each cup of water, take a full tablespoon of salt. So, dissolve the salt in the water and pour over the meat. Place a weight on top so that the beef does not float. Send to the refrigerator for 12 hours. Thanks to the long soaking, the meat fibers are salted just enough as necessary.
1 kg beef, 2 tbsp salt, 2 cup water
The beef will be well salted and slightly densified. Be sure to let the meat warm up to room temperature for a couple of hours. In a bowl, pour Herbes de Provence and freshly ground black pepper, pour in vegetable oil.
½ tsp Herbes de Provence, ¼ tsp pepper, 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Mix and coat the meat on all sides.
Transfer to a foil-lined baking dish.
Preheat the oven to 250℃, place the beef in it and cook, without reducing the heat and without opening the oven door, for 20 minutes. Then turn off the heat and leave the meat inside for 2 hours, do not open the oven.
The beef pastrami is ready. The meat can be eaten warm or wrapped in foil and refrigerated. The beef turns out tender, juicy, moderately salty, and very aromatic. Quick baking at maximum temperature and slow cooling in a closed oven does not allow the aromatic meat juices to escape, securely sealing them inside.
