How to Make Wagyu: From Farm to Table, A Culinary Journey
Meet Michael, a Wagyu cow with enough financial backing to hire a personal bodyguard. This documentary delves into the origins of Wagyu, the meticulous process of breaking it down for restaurant service, and the high-stakes world of Wagyu auctions where millions are exchanged daily. My trip to Kobe had a specific purpose - to explore the heart of Wagyu production. While Kobe beef stems from Wagyu, not all Wagyu beef attains Kobe status; if Kobe is likened to a Ferrari, then Wagyu is akin to a regular automobile. Standing tall at six feet three, I was surprised to find Michael matching my height; I hadn't realized they grew so large. I treaded carefully; causing any inconvenience to his guardian was the last thing on my agenda.
