American Wagyu Beef Bavette: On the Menu for a Hamptons Wedding

The starry lineup was described by four people who were at the wedding as well as several representatives for the attendees. Representatives for the couple did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The wedding may be elite society’s most coveted summer gathering for only a matter of weeks. Later this month, some of the same guests will travel to Venice for the nuptials of a different power couple: Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez.

The vocal group Boyz II Men performed at the wedding, according to two of the attendees, and speakers giving toasts included Mr. Soros’s brother Jonathan, Mrs. Clinton, Ms. Wintour and Mr. Rama.

Dishes included truffle agnolotti, chilled English pea soup and an American Wagyu bavette and grilled prawns.

The Democratic establishment descended on the Hamptons this weekend for something of a political royal wedding that brought together the worlds of big-money politics and Clinton-era insiders.

The newlyweds were Alex Soros, the son of George Soros, the Democratic Party’s most generous patron, and Huma Abedin, a political aide who has been described as almost a daughter to Hillary Clinton, the former first lady and secretary of state.

Held on Saturday at a Soros family estate in Water Mill, N.Y., the wedding drew private jets and Clinton aides galore in a rare concentration of wealth and power.

How to Grill AMERICAN WAGYU Steak

The bavette known by the less flattering name “flap meat” is a steak worth exploring. Like skirt steak, the bavette has a pronounced grain and it’s critical to cut against the grain. Bavette loves high heat so sear on a hot grill or cast iron pan and serve medium rare. This delicious cut loves to be marinated, so feel free to use your personal recipe for a delectable meal.

Popular with Asian, Latin American and French chefs because of its rich flavor, it’s more common these days on menus and in butcher shops. Our American Wagyu bavette is well marbled and has a rich buttery aroma and flavor.

Bavette means “bib” in French and describes its irregular shape. We cut three sections from each large piece, so each individual steak is a little different. No matter what shape, this is a butcher’s secret to be enjoyed.

Average weight: 1.5 lbs.

All SRF products are American Wagyu. We use the Japanese Beef Marbling Score (or BMS) to measure the marbling present in the beef. Both SRF Black® and SRF Gold® grade above USDA Prime. The SRF Black® grades between a BMS 6 to 8; SRF Gold® is the highest marbled with a BMS score at 9+.

GERMANY – now facing a major energy price disadvantage | @Schuldensuehner

Good Morning from Germany – now facing a major energy price disadvantage.

Electricity used to cost about the same here as in France, sometimes even less.

But since March 2024, not a single day has seen lower day-ahead power prices in Germany.

On average, German electricity prices are now significantly higher than those of our neighbors – and that's hitting competitiveness hard.

IN CONTEXT:

AI Overview

Nord Stream 2 was a controversial natural gas pipeline project connecting Russia and Germany. While proponents argued it would lower gas prices in Europe, the project's suspension and subsequent geopolitical events, particularly the war in Ukraine, led to soaring energy prices and a reassessment of energy security in Europe.

Germany's decision to halt the project's certification, coupled with Russia's weaponization of gas supply, has resulted in significantly higher energy costs for European consumers and businesses.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

Nord Stream 2 was designed to bypass Ukraine and deliver Russian gas directly to Germany, potentially increasing supply and lowering prices in the EU.
