Steak and Egg Hash

You guys! This hash is heavenly and disappeared almost immediately with my crew!

The duck fat home fries in this hash really are the star here. I take the extra step of cooking them separately, first parboiled in water and baking soda, then drained and added to the oven with duck fat for 40 minutes. Taking the time in this step will yield you an addictive super crispy exterior and fluffy and airy interior.

For the skirt steak - In order render a tender skirt steak, you must slice it properly: against the grain. If not, you’ll get a chewy steak and noone wants chewy.

Do you have to use duck fat? Short answer: yes! Duck fat adds a depth of flavor that is hard to duplicate with olive oil. In a pinch, you can certainly use olive oil.

If you try it - let me know what you think!
