Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Wagyu

    Remove the Miyazaki Wagyu from the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes to 1 hour before cooking. This ensures even cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Meat

    Pat the Wagyu dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with sea salt and black pepper.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sear the Wagyu

    Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the sesame oil. Sear the Wagyu for about 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time according to your preferred doneness.

  2. 4

    Add Flavor

    In the last minute of cooking, drizzle the soy sauce and mirin over the Wagyu, allowing it to caramelize slightly.

Serving

  1. 5

    Plate the Dish

    Remove the Wagyu from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Slice against the grain into thin pieces.

  2. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Serve the sliced Wagyu on a plate, garnished with shaved daikon radish and chopped fresh chives. Enjoy it as is or with additional soy sauce on the side.
