American Wagyu Cap of Ribeye meets Asian-influenced inspiration with this unique and flavorful recipe from Chef John Cuevas. Beurre Monte, the classic butter-based sauce, gets a spicy and tart umami blast from the Japanese condiment yuzu-kosho. (It’s easy to find in Asian stores or online.) Like many Japanese dishes, the succulent beef is topped with shaved bonito flakes for visual and flavor appeal.
