What is WAGYU MARBLE STEAK?
It's so delicious and healthy...Ummmmm....
Wagyu is a Japanese breed of cattle that produces highly marbled beef of
astounding flavor and tenderness which can command retail prices in Japan
in excess of $400 per kilogram. Black Wagyu is considered far superior
as it produces finer marbling in the meat.
The
term marbling refers to the fat that is found between the muscle fibers and
which gives the meat its characteristic white-flecked appearance. In Wagyu
Cattle the intramuscular fat is different to that found in other cattle breeds.
It contains high levels of mono unsaturated acids, oleates, whereas the fats
found in traditional beef breeds are mostly saturated and unhealthy. It is
generally accepted that the consumption of oleates reduces serum low-density
lipoprotein ? cholesterol. Thus, Wagyu beef containing a greater concentration
of oleates may be perceived as a more beneficial component of a diet designed to
lower serum cholesterol. The oleates in Wagyu give the beef its characteristic
nutty taste.
