Many guests are happy with 3 to 4 ounces each, which means this sampler sets a tasting for five or six, or dinner for three. Thaw the steaks in the refrigerator. Sear the Petite Filet whole in a very hot, dry pan for about a minute per side, rest it briefly and slice. Slice the NY Striploin and Picanha into strips about half an inch thick and sear them quickly; the marbling provides its own fat. Start with the Petite Filet, move to the Picanha, and finish with the Miyazaki NY Striploin, so each cut is tasted against the last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCertificate of authenticity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Japanese order ships with its certificate of authenticity.
