Simmentaler Tournedos
The Simmentaler Tournedos is the epitome of luxury and elegance on your plate. Cut from the most tender part of the tenderloin, this piece of beef is exceptionally soft, with a fine texture and a subtle, full flavour. Perfect for a refined dinner or special occasion where quality and finesse take centre stage. Thanks to its beautiful structure and lean character, this tournedos is loved not only by top chefs but also by home cooks who want to elevate their dishes. Sear it briefly in a pan with some butter and fresh herbs, and you’ll have a timeless classic on the table.
What is a tournedos?
A tournedos is cut from the centre of the tenderloin, the most tender part of the cow. Because this muscle does very little work, the meat is buttery soft, free from fat or sinew. That makes it ideal for those who love lean meat with a delicate texture. Internationally known as ‘filet mignon’, this cut is prized for its uniform shape and elegant appearance. Tournedos is perfect for quick searing on high heat, ideally served medium rare. With its fine texture, it doesn’t take much to impress, just some salt, pepper, and a knob of quality butter will do the trick.
Simmentaler beef, Alpine strength in every bite
This tournedos comes from Simmentaler cattle that graze freely in the vast alpine regions of Germany and Austria. These cows live for at least three years and have calved at least twice, which contributes to the development of their deep, characterful flavour. The Simmentaler breed, a cross between German and Swiss cattle, is known for its fine-grained meat, excellent marbling, and deep red colour. Their natural diet of grass, wild herbs, and flowers produces a pure and aromatic taste. This is meat you can trace back to the land, powerful, balanced, and authentic.

Step-by-step guide to cooking tournedos
- Take the tournedos out of the fridge and packaging at least one hour in advance to bring it to room temperature.
- Pat the tournedos dry with paper towels and season with freshly ground pepper and salt to taste.
- Heat a pan with a splash of oil (or a generous chunk of butter) on the stove.
- Once the oil is hot, place the tournedos in the pan and cook for about 1 minute per centimeter on each side. If your tournedos is 2cm thick, cook for 2 minutes on each side. If you'd like to cook it to the perfect core temperature, use the following temperatures: rare 48°C, medium rare 50°C, medium 52°C, and well-done 56°C.
- Wrap the tournedos in aluminum foil and let it rest for five minutes.
TIP: If you're cooking on a gas stove, keep the steak moving for even cooking. On induction, it's better to leave it undisturbed, except for flipping it once.
