Preparation

Select the Wagyu
Choose a high-quality A5 Wagyu beef cut, preferably from the Miyazaki Prefecture. Look for marbling and a rich red color.

Cook the Wagyu
Sear the Wagyu for about 1-2 minutes on each side, depending on thickness. Aim for a medium-rare doneness to fully appreciate the flavor and tenderness.
- 5
Rest the Meat
Remove the Wagyu from the heat and let it rest for at least 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute for better flavor.
- 6
Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice the Wagyu against the grain into thin pieces. Serve immediately with fresh herbs on the side if desired.
