You don't define the cut of beef. For flank steak I like to marinate
overnight in teriyaki with slices of garlic, ginger, and ground black
pepper. Grill or broil the steak until medium rare in the middle and slice
it thinly across the grain. Yum!

You don't name the cut of beef.
You can use a teriyaki sauce w/garlic, a simple bottle of Italian dressing,
or just about anything you want.
What is the desired taste you are looking for?

I start with teriyaki "soy, lots of fresh ginger and garlic" and,
add: bay leaves, chinese five spice, toasted seseame oil, blackstrap molassas,
Depending on who I am cooking for, I substitute worcestershire for soy.

CAUTION!!! Chinese five spice will take over!!

I have ues this on beef, chicken, pork, lamb, salmon...
The last time I BBQed pork I added fresh mint.
for some cornish hens I added orange marmelade.

I normally use zip-type storage bags to marinate. It seems easier than
a pan or bowl.

I reduce and thicken the leftover used marinade. for use at the table.

This recipe? has been evolving for over twenty years.

this is like joints of meat for roasting in the oven not 100% sure of the cuts
yet but more than likely solid meat no bone and very large pieces as there both
large parties i am catering for not bought meat yet though which is why the cut
is as yet unknown thanks for all your help and time best wishes Cobra

It would depend on what type of beef I had but genrally I like to marinate
it in crushed roasted sesame seeds, garlic, ginger and a ratio of 1/3 mirin
(cooking sake) to 2/3 soy. This can be eaten on its own or with a dipping
sacuse of chili (withseeds) ginger and the same ratio of soy to mirin.

Simple but great. goes lovely with tempura vegies and salad and rice

All right, I have GOT to start experimenting with seeds...

Other than Sesame and Poppy, what other seeds should I play with and
what are their applications???

Poppy, sesame, and caraway are good in/on bread things. A plain pound
cake with anise seed is quite nice. Flax seed is fashionable as a
health food -- I sometimes add to salad dressings. Fennel seed is used
in some sausage. Dear Julia's scallop soup uses six(!) seeds in the
poaching liquid. Celery seed goes with potato salad.

Sesame seeds are used in a lot of asian styles of cooking. You can always
put them in and on bread as well as popy seeds. My muns faveriouti loaf was
a capeseed loaf (but I never learnt waht that was) most of the spices we use
actually come from the seed of the plan. So you could experiement with that.
Another nice way to eat them is as a dip you get a bowl of olive oil and
another bowl of seeds and dip bread in these two.

My parents use all sorts of seeds in muslie the best thing is to expereiment
with what you like to taste

Sounds like fun, thanks!

Apologies for not answering some of the answers to this last night...
My hard drive crashed. :-( I had to re-install all of the system software and I
lost
EVERYTHING as I'd not been backing up my hard drive regularly like I should
have! sigh It's gonna be a real pain to try to somehow get ahold of all my
'net buddies and re-do my address book. That was my greatest loss. :-(

My computer is still not totally up yet. 'Sis, the mac whiz, is upgrading
everything
and we will see if Norton can restore any of my myriad lost files...

I'm posting from dad's e-mac.
