Types of beef

Beef is indispensable to Teppanyaki. In Japan, beef is classified into three types; Japanese beef (wagyu), domestic beef and imported beef. Japanese beef is a type bred for eating from ancient times. Among them, Japanese Black and Brown beef are famous. Domestic beef is the beef of the cattle (other than Japanese beef) raised in Japan for 3 months or more. Imported beef is from cattle raised in foreign countries.
Japanese Black

Among Japanese beefs, Japanese Black is especially liked by Japanese people. The largest number of Japanese Blacks are raised all over Japan. Its texture is fine and soft but chewy. The fat called "sashi", marbling in the meat melts down, and the flavor of the meat spreads in your mouth.
Branded beef

Japan's three major kinds of beef are Kobe beef, Matsusaka beef, and Omi beef or Yonezawa beef. Kobe beef is made in Hyogo Prefecture, Matsusaka beef in Mie Prefecture, Omi beef in Shiga Prefecture, and Yonezawa beef in Yamagata Prefecture. Only the beef that meets the strict standards is recognized as brand beef.
