Japanese Wagyu: Cutting Edition "Shintama" and "Ude"

Cutting Edition
Shintama (round tip)
We will divide the shintama into four parts: tomo sankaku (thick flank), shintama habaki (heel), shin shin (foreshank core), and kamenoko (lower thigh).
Meat can be peeled off easily by inserting your knife into the fascia.

Ude (upper foreleg)
We will divide the ude into four main parts: amami suji (shoulder tendon), kosan kaku (lower foreshank), misuji (top blade), and sankaku (shoulder chuck).

This area is linked with the forelegs and moves frequently, so tendons are present in the meat. However, the meat has a wide range of uses if the tendons are carefully removed.
