Chopped olives offer a similar briny flavor, while pickles are more accessible.

1

Slice the day old French baguette thinly to create croutons.

2

Lay the sliced baguette on a tray and drizzle with olive oil.

3

Cover with another tray and bake in the oven at 170 degrees Celsius for about 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown.

4

Finely chop 1 shallot and place it in a mixing bowl.

5

Dice baby gherkin pickles into fine batons and add them to the bowl.

6

Chop baby capers and add them next to the shallots and pickles in the bowl.

7

Chop chives finely and add them to the bowl.

8

Roll and chiffonade flat parsley, then chop and add it to the bowl.

9

Remove the croutons from the oven and season with salt and pepper.

10

Add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard to the bowl and create a well in the center.

11

Separate an egg and add the yolk into the well in the bowl.

12

Prepare 700 grams of rump steak by trimming off sinew and cutting it into strips for the grinder.

13

Grind the steak and ensure the ground meat stays in small pearls.

14

Take a fork and break the egg yolk, mixing it with the mustard.

15

Drizzle in olive oil to create an emulsion, then add Worcestershire sauce, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.

16

Gently fold in the ground beef with a spoon and fork, being careful not to break it down too much.

17

Use a ring mold to shape the beef tartare on a serving plate, gently pressing down.

18

Carefully remove the mold to unveil the tartare.

19

Serve the beef tartare with crispy croutons on the side and garnish with finely sliced cornichons and a piece of chive.
