Cut it your way

Use a long, sharp knife to slice across the entire piece. Cut 5-10mm slices for yakiniku or rapid pan searing, 1.5-2cm steaks for quick high-heat cooking, or thicker steaks for gentler cooking followed by a final sear. Return unused portions to the freezer before they fully thaw to preserve quality.

How to cook and serve

For thin slices, cook in a hot, dry pan for 60-90 seconds per side without added oil. For thicker steaks, start over moderate heat, turn regularly, then finish with a brief sear at high heat. Rest, slice, and season at the table. Japanese A5 Wagyu ribeye offers deep savory notes, a gentle sweetness, and rich flavor. Serve with short-grain rice, pickled vegetables, mushrooms, wasabi, lemon, or sea salt. The whole cut gives full control over portion size and presentation, emphasizing restraint and quality focus.
