"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Directions:
Choose an excellent cut of beef tenderloin from the tip end of the roast. Tell the butcher of the plans for the meat and enlist his help in selecting the right cut.

2:Wrap the meat in heavy plastic wrap. Set in the freezer for two hours. Chill serving plates in the refrigerator.

3:Take the meat from the freezer and remove the plastic wrap. Use a very sharp knife and slice the beef into pieces just under 1/4 inch thick.

4:Lay each slice of meat on to plastic wrap and cover with a second sheet of plastic wrap. Use a mallet or rolling pin and pound the meat until it is paper thin. Repeat the process with each slice of meat until all is pounded thin.

5:Rinse and dry the salad greens. Toss the greens in a bowl with the vinaigrette, salt and pepper.

6:Serve the beef Carpaccio. Divide the meat slices among the four chilled plates. Add a generous helping of salad. Finish the salad with shaved Parmesan cheese. Offer additional freshly ground black pepper at the table.
