The best part of beef tongue, the “tangen”, is generously cut into extra thick pieces. That’s why [Beef Tongue Lemon] can provide rare parts Beef tongue is an ingredient loved by many people for its softness, juiciness, and deep flavor. Because it is low in fat and high in protein, it is considered a healthy meal and is popular among health-conscious people. Beef tongue is divided into four types: “tangen”, “tanchu”, “tansaki”, and “tanshita”, and it is a rare part that can only be obtained from one cow in around 1kg. Of these, “Tangen” is the highest quality cut, which only accounts for about 20% of the whole meat, and is characterized by its rich marbling and delicate texture. It is a special part loved by foodies. Image

It is served according to the cooking method. This cooking method, which involves grilling the meat at a high temperature until crispy on the outside and then slowly cooking it to the inside, maximizes the tenderness, juiciness, and deep flavor that is unique to Tangen. The thickly cut beef tongue has an impact, and the exquisitely cooked, rare texture of the cut side will whet your appetite. It is characterized by its heavy weight that you can feel with chopsticks, and its plump and elastic softness, and the juicy flavor spreads throughout your mouth every time you chew it.

Other parts than “Tangen” are also used as main dishes and side dishes without wasting anything. For example, the “tansaki” that has been simmered for a long time is soft and fluffy, and the minced beef tongue used in meat miso has a firm texture, so you can enjoy beef tongue with a variety of textures. Additionally, we are proud of our carefully selected rice that brings out the flavor of the beef tongue. Kyoto’s long-established rice store, Hachidaime Gihei, uses a seasonal blend of rice to match our beef tongue, and cooks it all at once over high heat in the store’s large pot. Hokkata rice, which brings out its natural sweetness to the fullest and retains just the right graininess, perfectly matches the texture of the thick-sliced beef tongue, making it the perfect partner.
