30 minutes · Serves 2 to 4 (richness, not size). How Tokyo's teppan and charcoal rooms treat very marbled beef: cut small, seared fast and hard so the fat melts without the meat overcooking, cut into bite-size pieces, and eaten with the simplest things: salt, fresh wasabi, garlic chips and a little ponzu.
