The Essence of Kanazawa Noto Beef Yakiniku: The Secret to Hitenryu's Proudly Selected Wagyu

Encountering Noto Beef: An Unwavering Commitment to Quality

The core of Kanazawa Wagyu is Noto beef, the pride of Ishikawa Prefecture. Raised in the rich nature of the Noto Peninsula, Noto beef is characterized by its fine texture and elegant, savory fat. Due to its rarity and high quality, it is sometimes called phantom Wagyu. We purchase a whole, specially selected Noto beef cow, allowing our customers to fully enjoy the diverse appeal of various cuts. Our technique and philosophy are dedicated to maximizing the unique characteristics of each part, such as the deep umami of the lean meat, the sweet melt-in-your-mouth fat, and its distinct texture.

To serve our meat in the best possible condition, we make no compromises, from sourcing and aging to the final cut. The secret to bringing out the inherent deliciousness of Noto beef is to assess the condition of the meat daily and serve it at the optimal time. This thorough quality control is why we can confidently recommend our Yakiniku as Kanazawa Noto Beef Yakiniku.

• Noto beef, the pride of Ishikawa Prefecture, is a brand of Wagyu known for its fine texture and elegantly savory fat.
• By purchasing the whole cow, we are committed to offering a wide variety of Noto beef cuts at their freshest.
• The essence of our Yakiniku lies in our meticulous management to keep the meat in optimal condition, from sourcing all the way to slicing.

The Hitenryu Style: A Philosophy of Grilling to Maximize the Meat's Appeal

To fully savor the deliciousness of carefully selected Noto beef, the art of grilling is essential. As Kanazawa Yakiniku, we don't just serve meat; we suggest the optimal way to grill each specific cut. Thick-cut tongue should be seared to a fragrant crisp on the outside while remaining juicy inside. Thinly sliced loin should be quickly seared to enjoy its melt-in-your-mouth texture. There is a perfect heat level and time to bring out the maximum character of each cut of meat.

Even when you grill the meat yourself, we support you in enjoying it more deliciously by providing tips on the ideal cooking level and how to arrange the cuts on the grill. Furthermore, our special Hitenryu dipping sauce is blended not to overpower but to enhance the meat's umami. In addition to our secret sauce, we also offer simple condiments like rock salt, wasabi, and lemon, allowing you to enjoy a variety of flavors according to your preference.
