A 300g (10.5 oz) pack of thinly sliced beef tongue for Japanese yaki niku. Each slice is about 3mm thin (that's 1/8″) and you get about 300g (10.5oz) which serves 2-3. Because these are thinly sliced they only require a few seconds over the yaki niku or electric grill at home. For best results use only little sea salt and/or lemon juice. Simmental beef is a common breed in western Europe and known for its portion sizes, distinctive beefy flavor, and tenderness.
The cattle are bred free-range in small groups on the open pastures of the pristine hills and alps of Austria by family farm alliances. The feed is in-house grown and the beef is AMA certified (well known in Austria) meaning all produce has been certified of Austrian origin.
The cattle are grass-fed their entire lives and if lush green grass is not available due to the season or weather - especially during the winter - the cattle are fed a mix of all-natural grains and vitamins - all free of pesticides, GMO, and nasties. By regulations, all cattle in Europe are free of growth hormones and free subtherapeutic use of antibiotics. Simmental cattle are genetically a very large animal and therefore the cuts are relatively big in size compared to our American or Australian cattle. See more about the breed below.
