Plankstek boasts a rich and savory flavor profile, primarily driven by the high-quality steak. The creamy duchesse potatoes and accompanying vegetables contribute complementary textures and tastes.
The dominant flavor is the beefy taste of the steak, often seasoned simply with salt and pepper to allow the meat's quality to shine. The duchesse potatoes provide a smooth, buttery, and slightly sweet counterpoint. The vegetables, which vary, often include asparagus, tomatoes, and mushrooms, offering fresh and earthy notes that balance the richness of the steak and potatoes. The sauce, often a bearnaise or red wine reduction, adds another layer of complexity and enhances the overall savoriness.

Steak Selection
Choose a high-quality cut of steak, such as sirloin, tenderloin, or ribeye. The thickness should be suitable for plank cooking, generally around 1-1.5 inches.
Plank Preparation
Soak the wooden plank in water for at least 2 hours (or preferably overnight) to prevent it from burning during cooking. You can also use wine or beer for added flavor.
Potato Perfection
Use a piping bag with a star nozzle to create attractive duchesse potato swirls. Bake the potatoes until golden brown and slightly crispy.
Sauce Selection
Choose a sauce that complements the steak, such as bearnaise, red wine reduction, or garlic butter. Prepare the sauce in advance to streamline the cooking process.
Vegetable Variety
Select a variety of colorful and flavorful vegetables. Pre-cook vegetables that require longer cooking times before placing them on the plank.
