The advantage of this trick is that you can use it for any type of meat:beef, pork, chicken, veal, wild boar, rabbit and even beef bourguignon.

This technique works particularly well with small slices of meat, because their entire surface soaks up the baking soda.

As baking soda helps to alkalize (make less acidic) the surface of the meat.

This prevents the proteins from binding too easily and thus allows the meat to retain its tenderness during cooking.
