With this post, we inaugurate our YouTube channel! you can subscribe and make comments to the video or to the posts, as always. Gaston Acurio, one of the most important peruvian chefs, show us how to prepare an excellent Lomo Saltado (or sauté of beef tenderloin - remember the recipe? well, you’ll see some changes). It’s simple, with a little of humor and subtitled in english. Hope you like it!

The video states to use “scallop sauce” … I am not familiar with this ingrediant. Is ’scallop sauce’ another name for Chinese Oyster sauce OR Thai Fish sauce? Do you know? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Gaby
Gaby,
The scallop sauce is a thick, dark brown sauce made with scallops, oysters and soy sauce. It’s used for cooking and seasoning. And yes, I think you can use the chinese oyster sauce instead, if you can’t find it.
Good luck!
I heard Acurio saythat it was optional. I have never used to make Lomo Saltado, but I’m curious now and I will give it try next time I make it.
“Salsa de Ostión”. It was translated to Scallop Sauce in the video, but I think that maybe it should have been translated to “Oyster Sauce” because Oysters are also sometimes called Ostión or Ostra.
Here’s a pic of a popular brand of Salsa de Ostión I found on ther internet, and it says “Oyster Flavored Sauce” on it in English, and “Salsa con Sabor A Ostión” in Spanish. I hope that helps clear that up.
