Dry-Aged Ribeye
Bos taurus
Dry-aged ribeye is a cut from the rib section of the beef and is characterized by its rich marbling, which contributes to its flavor. The dry-aging process involves hanging the meat in a controlled environment for several weeks, allowing enzymes to break down muscle tissue and moisture to evaporate, resulting in intensified flavors and a more tender texture.
