About Gyūtan (Thick-cut grilled beef tongue)
Gyūtan, or beef tongue, is one of the local specialties enjoyed by visitors to Miyagi Prefecture. For Sendai-style gyūtan, the whole tongue is skinned, cut into thick slices, then aged over several days in a preparation process known as shikomi. The generously thick slices are grilled with salt or seasoned with miso for a satisfying bite. It’s especially delicious served with barley rice, grated yam, and oxtail soup.
