How does my wagyu beef arrive?

You will receive 1 x 325g pack of wagyu sirloin steak frozen, delivered in a polystyrene box with ice pads. Thaw in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours. Wagyu beef should be taken out of the refrigerator a minimum of 2 hour before cooking to allow the meat to come to room temperature before cooking.

How to cook wagyu beef?

The important thing to remember is that Wagu beef has sufficient fat within each steak and so just needs a the greasing of the pan. The addition of fats such as butter or olive oil will only mask the unique beefy flavour of your wagyu steak. Lightly salt the steak 5 minutes before cooking to bring out a film of moisture which helps in the creation of a savoury crust on the steak. Ideally use a cast iron skillet or griddle, get to a high heat and sprinkle the pan with sea salt before adding the steak. Sear on each side for 2 minutes before lowering the heat and cooking to your liking. Allow to rest for at least 5 minutes on a warm plate.

This sirloin steak is the premium example of wagyu beef. This cut is ideal if you want to slice for the classic Japanese-style presentation. You could try our rib eye wagyu steak, perhaps not quite so tender but with more of the marbling of fat that makes this meat so succulent.

Perfect with a bottle of our Enate Cabernet Sauvignon wine aged for 12 months in oak barrels, a green salad and a few fried potatoes and a dollop of chimichurri sauce, check out our recipe here.
