Kobe beef. Kobe beef (ç¥æ¸ãã¼ã, KÅbe bÄ«fu) (KO-BEH) refers to beef from the Tajima strain of Wagyu cattle, raised in Japan's Hyogo Prefecture according to rules as set out by the Kobe Beef Marketing and Distribution Promotion Association. The meat is a delicacy renowned for its flavor, tenderness, and fatty, well-marbled texture.
Later that year, the U.S. government allowed Kobe beef into the country. The American distributor of Kobe beef is Fremont Beef Co. of Fremont, Neb. Laun Hinkle, Fremont's sales manager, tells me you should ask to see proof of authenticity before ordering any meat described on the menu as Kobe beef.. A restaurant or market with the real stuff should be eager to show you the certification.
