Preparation

Bring the steak to room temperature.

Prepare the grill and when all the flames have died down, evenly spread coals. Clean the grill with a steel brush and a dry cloth.

Cook the steak for 4/5 minutes on one side, turn once only and cook the other side for another 4/5 min.

Place onto a serving platter, sprinkle with a generous amount of sea salt, drizzle with abundant olive oil and serve.

Note: In Florence the steak is served rare only. Do not try to cook it more than that - you will never get it right.
