Description
Experience the exceptional flavour and tenderness of Fresh Japanese Chuck Flap from Kagoshima , also known in Japan as Zabuton. Taken from the chuck roll near the shoulder, zabuton is a highly prized cut celebrated for its fine marbling, succulent texture and rich beef flavour.
The Japanese name zabuton, meaning “cushion”, refers to the cut’s distinctive shape. Its delicate ribbons of fat melt during cooking, creating beautifully juicy meat with a mellow richness and deep umami taste. Tender enough for quick cooking yet full of flavour, this premium Japanese beef is ideal for preparing an indulgent meal at home.
Slice thinly for Japanese yakiniku, sukiyaki or shabu-shabu, or cut into steaks and sear briefly in a hot frying pan or on the barbecue. For the best results, avoid overcooking and allow the beef to rest before serving.

Cooking Suggestions
Bring the beef to room temperature before cooking. Season lightly with salt and pepper, then sear over a high heat until browned while keeping the centre tender and juicy. Serve simply with wasabi, grated daikon, ponzu sauce or a Japanese-style steak sauce.
