KyoNaka Nikuzuki

Sukiyaki is a traditional Japanese dish where dry-aged Wagyu beef, tofu, onions, and other ingredients are simmered together in a flavorful broth. The combination of soup stock, soy sauce, and other seasonings creates a salty-sweet flavor profile that complements the ingredients and dry-aged Wagyu beef. The recommendation to enjoy sukiyaki as it is, without any additional dipping sauce, is a common and delicious way to start the dish. The rich dry-aged Wagyu beef flavors blend harmoniously with the rice, creating a delightful combination that can make the chopsticks move faster with each bite. However, for those looking to enhance the taste experience further, dipping their dry-aged Wagyu beef in pouched Kyoto eggs (￥150) truly adds another layer of flavor and texture. By mixing the slightly hardened egg white with the creamy and sticky yolk, the resulting mixture becomes mellow and smooth. When combined with the dry-aged Wagyu beef, this dipping sauce elevates the overall taste and provides a unique way to enjoy the Sukiyaki.
