Rice

Method

Beef Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Wagyu

    Generously season the Wagyu beef with salt and black pepper on all sides.

  2. 2

    Torch the Beef

    Using a flame torch, lightly torch each side of the Wagyu beef until it reaches a medium-rare internal temperature, about 50-55°C (120-130°F). Remove from heat and let rest.

Truffle Soy Glaze Preparation

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, truffle oil, brown sugar, and mirin. Stir well.

  2. 4

    Reduce the Glaze

    Over medium heat, let the sauce simmer until it thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Rice Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook Sushi Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to the package instructions. Typically, combine rice with water in a rice cooker and cook until fluffy.

  2. 6

    Season the Rice

    In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice while it is still warm. Let cool to room temperature.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Press the Sushi

    Line a sushi mold or a flat dish with plastic wrap. Place a layer of sushi rice in the bottom, followed by a layer of the torched Wagyu beef. Add another layer of sushi rice on top, pressing down gently.

  2. 8

    Slice and Garnish

    Remove from the mold and slice into bite-sized pieces. Top each piece with a drizzle of truffle soy glaze, a slice of jalapeño, and a sprinkle of chopped chives or green onions.
