The butter didn’t rehydrate the steak because the proteins in the steak are mostly hydrophilic, and butter is hydrophobic. So butter won’t attract the proteins in the steak as strongly as water would (because, again, the proteins are hydrophilic, which means “water loving”). I recommend rehydrating with bourbon!

[@PosiCat]

The steak didn't rehydrate because you're trying to cram oil into proteins that are designed to accept water, they're cells like out body, they aren't going to absorb pure fat. What did get into the steak was the water that's part of the butter, the milk fats probably mostly stayed outside the steak, or on the surface (explain that awesome sizzle you got!) This does open up opportunities to try other things to re-hydrate steaks with. Off hand the things I think would work well : various flavors of stock, I suspect pork might be nice, or try ramen soup packets for a variety. A nice rich beer, maybe a Guinness would be nice. Diluted soy sauce, soy sauce and steaks are great friends! Milk fats won't work what about whey? And I know it's not for everyone, but perhaps a solution of MSG or some other broth rich with umami flavor, like miso soup? Love your channel, I've got 2 Sous Vide circulators, and I'm having a blast finding out what you do with yours, it's inspiring me to do my own experiments her. Keep being awesome!

[@noahbastola9386]

I was thinking the exact same thing. Osmosis doesn't work on lipids

[@laurean5998]

I generally agree with your comment, but would like to add: the steak didn't rehydrate because the added as much butter as he removed water and butter is 15% water at max. There was not enough water present to hydrate anything. Even if the butter got into the steak it still wouldn't be hydrated because the definition of hydration is being full of water... And I would love to see beer or liqour as well. You could probably use some thickener that is soluible in water and needs to be heated to activate like agar and basicly put gello in the steak, pretty sure it wouldn't improve anything but still would be fun to watch imo. Tea, milk, vinegar or wood flavor (taste emporium has a great video on instant wood-aging) would be crazy as well.

Water molecules are small. It's an oxygen atom with 2 tiny hydrogen atoms stuck to it. Butter, like all other fats, are VERY large molecules. They are made up of fatty acids, which are long chains of carbon bonded to glycerin. There's not way those huge molecules are going to fit into the places where water molecules do.

[@Martineiro]

Butter is only 18% water (so like 3 ounces in a pound of butter), and you can’t rehydrate meat cells with fat. The idea is nice but the theory behind it is faulty.

Hydration is literally "the act or process of combining or treating with water" so yeah, you dehydrated it (took the water out) and now it's dry. Fat doesn't equal water even if it's in the liquid state.

@@uhclem Butter contains water.

[@uhclem]

@@robertterrill525 Yes, but he used clarified butter which does not. Did you see how dry the steak was?

[@Loathomar]

Ignoring the semantics, the real issue is that most if not all the fatty acids in butterfat will not be able to travel through the membrane to fill the area that was filled with water. The most common fatty acids inside butter is Palmitic acid which is C16H32O2 has 10 times the molar mass of water. And what rehydration they did get, again ignoring semantics, likely came from the water content of butter and not any from fat. The experiment would have been better if it was done with clarified butter, as you pointed out, it does not have water. Commercial moisturizers are often not trying to get water into people skin to moisturize, but to add a layer of essential fatty lipids, which improve the barrier function of the skin, allowing it to feel supple and hydrated as a result. That one is a bit complex, semantically speaking.

You can't "Hydrate" something with butter, because the butter is an oil and thus the polar opposite of water You can however rehydrate with any type of spirit - I've heard Whiskey is quite good for that (or you can rehydrate with vodka if you wanna be savage about it)

That sounds pretty good, maybe too strong though. Need to water the bourbon or whatever down first I'd guess.

[@didkiddler3908]

First, oil and water are not polar opposites at all. Water is polar, oil is non-polar, hence why they don't mix. There isn't any "opposite" to water. Second, you absolutely can technically hydrate something with butter. There is a significant amount of water in butter, so it still could hydrate the steak. Also, butter isn't exclusively an oil. It's a water in oil emulsion.

The steak wouldn't have been able to fully re-hydrate with the butter anyway the way this seems to have been done. Cuz in order for it to re-hydrate, the butter would have had to remain liquid. Once it had solidified, it could no longer penetrate the steak. Probably should have let it cook in all that butter as well, that way it could have fully gotten through as a liquid. But what do I know. Lol.

[@Ttarler]

I’m not a chef but a theory: water is a very polar substance, butter is a “water in oil” emulsion, so it’s approximately 80% non-polar and the rest polar (water). Polar and non polar substances don’t mix very well, e.g. can’t mix oil into water very easily, you essentially are left with a steak with 20% of the water content (hence its dryness) and then the butterfat. I think if you diluted the butter with water or otherwise found a way to replace the water in the steak with a similar polarity substance you’d achieve your goal of a very fatty steak.

Beer. Is what we do in south Mexico. Add beer on the steaks when we do carne asada. On wood or charcoal grill. Then we season it after is cooked. It is different. Yet is how we also do our taco meats.

DAY 2 of asking: Do a dry age experiment with çemen paste (it is turkish and turks regularly coat pastirma with it), mainly consisted of cumin, fenugreek, garlic, tomato paste and hot chili flakes. Çemen is delicious would love to see a dry aged experiment with çemen.

No it isn‘t :-) Ç is pronounced as „ch“ as for in example the words church or chat

The mushrooms look awesome. Try rehydrating the steak with the butter in the vacuum bag sou vide, low pressure low heat just to keep that butter warm and liquid but not overcook the steak. A bunch of people are saying you need to re-hydrate with something water based. Ok, how about a beef broth reduction?

what about rehydrating it with bacon fat??🤔🤔 I think that would be incredible 💯💜

[@ralphkleinguevarra]

Moisture isn’t fat. Moisture is water. Fat won’t rehydrate this steak even at the slightest. Butter is almost 70-80% fat and it didn’t even rehydrate the steak, what makes you think pure fat will rehydrate it? Is everyone absent in their science class to not know this???

[@remnant24]

​@Dyanosis I don't know what you mean by "more water than anything else" but commercial butter is less than 20% water, and fat is its main component. That's also why it failed to really rehydrate the steak.

Not gonna lie, I miss the old days of SVE when the experiments were things you could actually try yourself. I don’t have a freeze drying machine, nor does anyone I know.

[@JoakimArfvidsson]

You have a physics bug in your process. The butter was not sucked into the dry meat, because it was too cold. Both butter and steak have to be in the temperature range where butter is liquid, otherwise the butter will immediately solidify and clog the pores of the meat before penetrating deep. It really doesn't take much temperature though - 100F is just over the melting point of butter. You should let the dry steak bathe in 100F butter for a while. It won't cook the steak and this will give you the best chance of absorbing the butter.

[@Stephanpar23]

[@dorianleakey]

"hydrate" is about water, you cant rehydrate with fat.

[@dorianleakey]

hydrogen dioxide, H2O is what what you take away, you cant replace it with fat and expect it not to be dry.

[@WillYazdani]

Butter contains water (about 1/5 of the total weight). Also the pores of the meat can be filled with any liquid, including the butterfat that is in liquid form after being melted.

[@dorianleakey]

@@WillYazdani The 1/5 is not a lot and filling the dry meat pores with butter will not make it taste hydrated, just buttery. Ok if thats your thing.

[@Jonassoe]

@@WillYazdani I assume the rehydration process happens by capillary action. Maybe the long fat molecules don't work as well for this as the smaller water molecules do.

[@angelsjoker8190]

Probably, he didn't mean "rehydrate" in the correct meaning of the word but just replacing the liquid (water) with another liquid (butter).

Butter can't rehydrate anything, it's fat. Hydrate means water. Try doing this again but partially hydrate the steak with water and then do the butter.
