For those that do not know, umami is one of the five flavor profiles that is sometimes forgotten. It is the savory note that we mostly get with meat, broths, soy sauce and now these Hanger Steaks. But, how did we achieve this flavor? I was able to snag some Porcini and King mushroom powder that gives off intense umami flavor. Mix that with some soy sauce, fish sauce, dijon mustard and garlic for an amazing marinade on these Umami Whiskey Marinated Hanger Steaks. Even with all of that, I wanted a spicy sweet kick as well. That is where the new Single Barrel Rye Whiskey came into effect. Get all my seasonings and rubs! How we cook these Umami Whiskey Marinated Hanger Steaks with Fries The hanger steak firstly marinated overnight. Hanger is a cut of meat that works well with marinades especially since we needed to get these intense umami flavors. Preheated our fire to a medium high heat and then started frying out fries. The fries only take a short while to cook, so we decided to grill the steaks at the same time. Once the fries and the steaks were done, we let the steak rest. Next, we tossed the fries in a garlic parmesan mixture. Served the Umami Whiskey Marinated Hangers Steaks with Fries and called it a day.
