4. Remark
Notes:Note
Asian fish sauce is available at Asian markets and many supermarkets
Wine
Although beef traditionally calls for a red, these seasonings suggest a white wine. A rich Californian, such as a full-bodied chardonnay, can play to both the beef and the salad here. If you prefer red wine, try a light, fruity Beaujolais.
