Here we have the steak after roughly 24 hours of dry-aging in the fridge wrapped in a paper towel. It's gone from 15.3oz to 14.7oz, so we've lost .6oz of moisture. This loss equates to nearly four (3.921568) percent of the steak's original weight.
As you can see, some scraps of paper towel have stuck to the meat. If I were to do this again, I might try using tea towels to avoid the paper sticking to the meat.
Notice the deepening of color here. The steak has also become significantly firmer than it was previously, no doubt due in part to the loss of moisture.
Re-wrapped in a fresh paper towel and
ready for another 24 hours in the fridge.
oh look, one of the liberty ales s missing.
