Product Details
Great beef makes great tendon.
The rich umami of Kobe Beef is concentrated in every piece. Raised on high-quality feed, Kobe Beef tendon is also notable for producing remarkably little scum during cooking.
Beef tendon typically requires pre-boiling, but with Kobe Beef tendon, you may not even need that step depending on your preference. (It will be a bit richer if you skip it.)
The tendon is also exceptionally tender, so cooking time is much shorter than with ordinary beef tendon.
Perfect for dishes like these...
Kobe Beef tendon releases so much umami and depth that it transforms everyday tendon dishes into something special.
Add it to oden, for example, and there is absolutely no gamey smell. The umami of Kobe Beef infuses the daikon radish, creating an extraordinary oden.
"Kobe Beef Tendon Curry" is another revelation — bursting with umami, it is astonishingly good. Our household favorite is "suji-konnyaku" — simply simmered with konjac. Dangerously easy to keep eating!
Other ideas: doteyaki, okonomiyaki, yakisoba, omelette, soup, yakiniku (tender pieces are great just grilled), red wine stew — the possibilities are as wide as your imagination.
Why Kobe Beef tendon is truly rare (and why we cannot accept delivery date requests)
Our tendon includes a mix of various cuts.
On average, producing 1 kg of tendon requires processing 10 kg of meat. When we portion steaks, yakiniku, and sukiyaki cuts from whole blocks, we trim away the firm sinew that would affect the texture. In other words, tendon is a byproduct of preparing our other products — we can only sell tendon at the rate our regular cuts sell.
Kobe Beef tendon is extremely popular among serious beef enthusiasts, and many buy it by the kilogram, which makes balancing supply with our regular products a real challenge. The 10:1 ratio simply cannot keep up.
For this reason, we did not offer tendon for some time. However, when we had the chance to secure a large supply and listed it here, demand far exceeded expectations! We had planned a limited-time sale, but decided to make it a regular offering — with the condition that delivery dates cannot be specified.
Depending on availability, we can deliver as soon as 1–2 days after ordering, or within 1–2 weeks at most.

I'm a repeat customer.
Still as delicious as ever.
I even use the water from parboiling as a base for vegetable hot pot.
Since the meat is so clean and flavorful, it's worth getting creative.
I freeze the rest and enjoy it over a longer period.
I've reordered many times, and each time the quality is excellent — so much red meat that you'd think, "Is this really beef tendon?"
I blanch it before cooking, but barely any scum comes out.
I use it for stews and curries during the cold months.
This is a cut you can't find at the supermarket, and I won't buy it anywhere else anymore.
There are tender parts included too, and it's incredibly delicious even just grilled.
The rest is perfect for simmering, or adding to curry or stew!
This is nothing like the beef tendon you get at the supermarket. Of course, the finished dishes turned out many levels better too. I can't buy it anywhere else now...
Even though it's tendon, there's plenty of lean meat, making it easy to cook with.
It was delicious!
The meat is clean, with no off-putting smell, and since you can't buy this in stores, I'm so happy.
I had it in a stew and in oden.
If I had one wish, it would be nice if it came in 500g portions for easier home use.
I bought this as a gift, and the packaging and wrapping were very careful. I'll be using this again for year-end and New Year gifts! I'd love to buy some for myself too!
It was so incredibly delicious!
Very little scum came out, making it easy to cook with too.
This is completely different from the beef tendon sold at supermarkets. For the past three years or so, the orders I received didn't contain any tough sinew (the thick kind that's hard to cut through), but this time there was about 100 to 200 grams per kilogram. I simmered just the tendon with the green part of a long onion for about two hours, then added burdock root and carrot and simmered for another hour. The thinner pieces I cut into bite-sized pieces, pan-fried in butter, and seasoned with salt and pepper or homemade garlic soy sauce for a beer snack. Absolutely amazing!
I bought this to make bolognese, and there was hardly any waste at all. It turned out delicious!
- Also recommended! How about a taste comparison?
- How about adding this? This cut is delicious too!
- Want more? Try this one too!
