Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Wagyu

    Season the Wagyu beef with salt and black pepper. Allow it to rest at room temperature for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat the Rock

    In a dry pan, heat the rock salt on medium-high heat for about 10 minutes until it is very hot. You can also use a flat stone or a grill stone.

  3. 3

    Sear the Beef

    In a separate pan, add vegetable oil and sear the Wagyu beef for about 1-2 minutes on each side, depending on your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Place the hot rock on a heatproof plate. Slice the seared Wagyu beef and arrange it on the rock. Drizzle ponzu sauce over the beef and serve immediately with extra ponzu on the side.
