Jun. 21
To purchase seasonings, I went to the depot of the Seikatsu Club Co-op in Azamino.
I bought the usual soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, etc.When I looked at the meat section, I found beef that looked delicious.
It is said to be “Hokine Beef” from Tochigi.
It is a beef cow born by crossing a female Holstein breed kept by a farmer of the Nasu Broom Root Dairy Cooperative with a Japanese black breed and a male species.
So, I made it steak tonight.
Today’s Dish
Edamame
Salad with seafood marinade
Hokine Beef Rump Steak
Hokine Beef, I’m right.
The flesh is tender, but chewy.
Every time I bite into it, the flavor of the juicy meat fills my mouth.
It’s very tasty.
It’s similar to the lean pastured cattle I used to eat in Argentina.
Wagyu beef and imported beef sold in supermarkets do not have this style.
I want to eat it again.
Wine of the Day
Estezargues Cotes du Rhone Blanc 2023 1,850 yen
Today’s main dish was steak, but I wanted to drink a good chilled white wine, so I opened this Rhone white.
It is a natural wine from the well-known Estezargues made with no pesticides, no added sulfurous acid, and wild yeast fermentation.
I felt thick fruitiness, rounded acidity and wrinkled minerality.
A plump mouthfeel that feels thick.
It is a blend of 70% Grenache Blanc, 10% Clarette, 10% Bourboulenc and 10% Viognier.
It was also perfect for today’s lean steak.
