Beef carpaccio is a classic Italian appetizer made of thinly sliced raw beef, often served with a tangy homemade sauce. It's a light, flavorful dish that has become a favorite worldwide.
Divide slices into six small chilled plates, arranging them in one thin layer, covering the surface of the plates altogether. Drizzle some of the sauce over meat on each plate and let for 2 to minutes. With a peeler make some shaving of Parmesan and dispense 3 or 4 to a plate and serve immediately.
