Swiss Steak

Cultural Context

Swiss Steak, despite its name, is an American dish that originated from the practice of 'swissing' or tenderizing meat. It reflects the resourcefulness of home cooks in using tougher cuts of beef, transforming them into a flavorful meal through slow cooking. Today, it's a comforting classic enjoyed in many households, often served with hearty sides.
