What are these clear parts in beef steak?

Seasoned Advice Asked by user89574 on December 27, 2020

I can identify the large white strips as inter-muscular fat, the red meat as muscle, and the small white parts throughout the muscle as intra-muscular fat, but what is the clear tissue (circled in orange and blue)?

Should it be removed before serving?

Clear part of beef porterhouse steak

One Answer

This looks like gristle.

I wouldn't go hacking at the steak just to remove it. If the eaters don't like it, they are free to cut their steak around it and leave it in their plate.
