Sushi - Series 5 Sushi - Series 4 Sushi - Series 3 Sushi - Series 2 Sushi - Series 1 To understand where all this hype started we need to first go back to Japan, to 1868, when the first foreign trading port opened in the city of Kobe on the west coast of Japan. At this time Kobe enjoyed a heavy influx of foreign visitors, and it wasn't long before word got around about the astonishingly rich and amazing taste of the Kobe Beef. Kobe Beef was soon regarded as one of the main highlights of visiting Japan.
Kobe Beef comes from a breed of cattle called Wagyu, which are significantly higher in yield grade and marbling (speckled fat markings) and have been selectively bred over many hundreds of years, making them regarded as far superior to all other cattle breeds found elsewhere in the world.
"The cows are regularly brushed and massaged, to stimulate and relax them"
What makes Kobe Beef particularly tasty is the way in which the farmers look after their cattle, with a level of pampering and attention that would be more commonly associated with the raising of a thorough bred race horse. The cows are regularly brushed and massaged, to stimulate and relax them. More surprisingly, these lucky cows are also raised on regular helpings of beer...yes, beer! The reason for the beer is apparently to stimulate the stomach wall and serve to increase the cow's appetite. The beer is also said to help with decreasing bacteria within the cow, making them healthier, and therefore producing a higher quality beef.
The popularity and media attention of Kobe Beef has exploded over reason years with Hollywood stars, such as Tom Cruise and Steven Spielberg spreading the word on its amazingly delicate and velvety taste. Not surprising, Kobe Beef was also high on the menu for this year's Oscar Award ceremony. Kobe Beef has become increasingly exclusive outside of Japan, particularly in super high class restaurants in London and New York, where the order of the day appears to be Shabu-shabu (meaning swish-swish), referring to the swishing action of thinly sliced pieces of beef cooked in hot water. Due to the exclusivity of this delicacy, people are prepared to pay the equivalent of between £50 and £100 for a Kobe Beef steak in a restaurant in Japan.
"The ban on the real imported Kobe Beef has bought about illegal smuggling"
Before 2001, Kobe Beef was exported to the USA and UK, however due to the threat of mad cow disease this was stopped, and now you are only able to eat Wagyu beef that has been produced from Wagyu cattle bred outside of Japan. This is not to say it is not of the same extremely high quality, as these are genuine Wagyu cows bred to exact specifications. The ban on the real imported Kobe Beef has also bought about illegal smuggling, known as the dealing of 'red diamonds', for people wanting to experience the genuinely authentic Japanese cuisine, Kobe Beef.
life is a waste of time, time is a waste of life, so lets get wasted all of the time and have the time of our life.
