Cooking Tips for the Perfect Roast
To achieve the full potential of your Wagyu roast, remember these practical tips:
Let It Rest: Allow your roast to rest for at least 20 minutes after cooking. This lets the juices redistribute, resulting in a moist and flavourful cut.
Season Generously: A simple seasoning of salt and pepper enhances the natural flavors of Wagyu beef. Don't hesitate to be generous—this is the highlight of your meal!
Use a Meat Thermometer: For perfect doneness, invest in a reliable meat thermometer. Aim for an internal temperature of 60°C to 65°C for medium-rare.
Slicing Technique: When serving, slice against the grain to ensure maximum tenderness. This small detail can significantly improve texture.
