How to Prepare Tartare, 4 Ways

The simplicity of tartare is what makes it so beautiful, and that starts with the way the raw meat or fish is cut.

Opinion varies on the best way to prepare tartare, whether to dice, roughly chop or mince the meat, and you probably already have your favourite texture.
