Main Ingredients

Leek Tallow

Black Plum Garnish

Method

Preparing the Wagyu

  1. 1

    Season the Wagyu

    Sprinkle the Wagyu coulette evenly with salt and black pepper. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sear the Wagyu

    Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Sear the Wagyu coulette for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Making the Leek Tallow

  1. 3

    Prepare the leeks

    Slice the leeks thinly. Rinse them under cold water to remove any dirt, then drain.

  2. 4

    Cook the leeks

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the beef tallow. Add the leeks and cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and caramelized.

Preparing the Shishito Muhammara

  1. 5

    Roast Shishito Peppers

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add shishito peppers and cook until blistered and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

  2. 6

    Blend Ingredients

    In a food processor, combine the roasted shishito peppers, roasted red peppers, walnuts, garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth, adding additional olive oil if necessary to reach desired consistency.

Plating

  1. 7

    Assemble the Dish

    On a serving plate, place a generous spoonful of the leek tallow. Slice the Wagyu coulette and arrange it on top. Add a dollop of the shishito muhammara beside the meat.

  2. 8

    Garnish

    Top with sliced black plums for a fresh contrast and serve immediately.
