Method

Preparation of Beef

  1. 1

    Slicing the Beef

    Slice the Westholme wagyu beef into thin strips, about 1/2 inch thick. Ensure uniformity for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Marinating Beef

    Place the sliced beef in a bowl and pour the ponzu sauce over it. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator to absorb the flavors.

Cooking Instructions

  1. 3

    Heating the Hot Rock

    Preheat a hot stone or cooking rock over a flame or in an oven until it reaches a temperature of about 400°C (752°F). This will ensure that the beef cooks quickly and evenly.

  2. 4

    Cooking the Beef

    Once the rock is hot, carefully place the marinated beef strips on the rock. Cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness is achieved. Remember, wagyu beef is best enjoyed medium-rare.

Garnishing and Serving

  1. 5

    Preparing Garnishes

    Finely chop the chives and toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until they are golden brown.

  2. 6

    Serving the Dish

    Once cooked, remove the beef from the hot rock and arrange it on a serving platter. Sprinkle with chopped chives and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately with extra ponzu sauce on the side for dipping.
