How to Cook Akaushi Beef
Akaushi beef is regarded as some of the best beef in the world. The cows were originally bred in Kumamoto, Japan but were brought to the United States due to a loophole in the Trade Act of 1992 between the U.S. and Japan. Now, Akaushi beef can be bought through HeartBrand beef in Texas. The beef can be cooked the same way normal beef is cooked, but yields much better results. Does this Spark an idea?
