dried meat

dried meat introduction

It is a local food that has been handed down since ancient times in Tsuyama, Okayama prefecture. Okayama prefecture is also the place where Japan's oldest wagyu was born, and its history is old, and it has a tradition as a production area for high-quality wagyu beef. Beef blocks are dried for a few days to condense the umami, and in the past they were eaten as preserved foods. It is reputed to be very tasty when sliced, lightly grilled on the surface, and eaten. Even if it's dried, it's not as hard as beef jerky, so it can be said that it's a souvenir that everyone from the elderly to small children will be happy to eat. It can be purchased at local supermarkets and butcher shops, and it has become established as a local food culture.
