Instructions
- Cut 300 grams A5 Wagyu into 3-inch wide strips and put them into a strainer.
- Prepare a large bowl of cold water and then add a kettle of boiling water to another large bowl.
- Working quickly, lower the strainer of beef into the bowl of boiling water and swish the meat around a few times to separate the slices. The goal here is to blanch the surface of the meat, not cook it through all the way, so it should still be pink.
- Move the strainer to the bowl of cold water and swish the wagyu around a few times to chill and stop the cooking. Drain the meat well.
- For the gyudon sauce, add ½ cup dashi, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoons mirin, and 5 grams powdered gelatin to a bowl and stir to combine.
- Put a skillet on the stove over medium-high heat and add 2 teaspoons vegetable oil and 100 grams onion. Sauté the onions until they’re translucent and start to brown (3-4 minutes).
- Pour the gyudon sauce mixture into the pan and simmer with the onions until they’re tender and the sauce slightly thickens (another 4-5 minutes).
- Add the blanched wagyu to the pan and toss to coat evenly with the sauce and onions. When the meat is no longer pink it’s ready to serve.
- Divide the beef, onions, and the remaining gyudon sauce onto 360 grams cooked short-grain rice divided between two bowls.
- Optionally, top your premium gyudon with 2 egg yolks or onsen tamago.
