We also use beef with a BMS of 10 or higher, which indicates particularly beautiful marbling. You can enjoy the melting sweetness of the fat and the rich umami flavor. It is truly a "melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness." Rice: Sukiyaki-Exclusive Blended Rice [Rice Master Hachidaime Gihei] A long-established Kyoto rice shop, continuing since the Edo period, carefully selects rice with exceptional discernment specifically for sukiyaki. Through low-temperature, slow milling and blending in 1% increments, they maximize the deep sweetness and umami, achieving the ideal taste. We serve the highest quality rice, carefully cooked in an earthenware pot. Eggs: Specially Selected Free-Range Eggs [Soshiji Eggs] Our restaurant uses original free-range eggs specially matched for sukiyaki. Eggs laid by chickens raised freely in a natural-like environment are characterized by rich yolks and firm whites. With every bite, the deep umami and robust flavor inherent in the eggs spread. Furthermore, these eggs are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamins A, D, E, and high-quality protein, offering both taste and nutrition. Please enjoy them with your sukiyaki. Pot: Custom-Made Pot by [Nambu Ironware] A custom-made sukiyaki pot crafted from traditional Nambu ironware. The thick cast iron has excellent heat retention, distributing heat evenly throughout the pot. It sears the meat perfectly, locking in its flavor, and gently heats vegetables and tofu, carefully bringing out their natural tastes.
