In Järvenpää, perhaps the most coveted delicacy of meat smokers will go on sale on Thursday. Kobe, known as the world’s highest quality beef, is born from classical music, regular massages and beer-enjoying animals.
Today a very valuable truck has arrived at Järvenpää K-Citymarket on Thursday at 2.00 pm. Another hundred kilos of Japanese Kobe meat, known as the best – and also the most expensive – meat in the world, is on sale. It is a merchant Markku Hautalan according to desired for a long time.
“For the first time in the spring, we held Japan Week, which was really popular. Kobeliha then became a direct request to see if we could bring real kobe here for sale, ”says Hautala.
Kobeli meat is not available in just about any store. In order to officially sell kobe, there must be a store certified by the Kobe Association of Japan.
Quite not every founder can immerse his teeth in the kobe. This delicacy coveted by meat hippies is not quite free. In Järvenpää, one kilo of Kobe can be shelled for almost 400 euros.
However, it is small compared to what is caught elsewhere for some Kobe meats.
“In Japan, when you look at Kobe prices so at times but turn your head,‘ there’s no point in this in this job ’. In Tokyo, I have seen a price of up to 2,000 euros per kilo, ”describes Hautala, who has visited Japan several times.
The price may seem outrageous in the eyes of a Finn accustomed to a few euros of pork mince. But the Kobe bull is not raised just like any other mass-produced cattle. The life of a Kobe bull is a luxury that not all people dare to even dream of.
Or what does it like to sip beer, regular massages and listen to classical music?
“Growing kobe meat is an art in itself. It’s really based on the fact that that animal lives a life as stress-free as possible. Care is taken not to increase its stress levels, as this in turn affects the taste of the meat. ”
Indeed, Kobe meat is considered the best beef in the world, a kind of champagne in the meat world.
To minimize the risk that an inexperienced chef will spoil your precious gourmet meat, there will be a Kobe champion on site at Järvenpää Citymarket on Thursday. Served as Kobe Ambassador in Germany for 20 years Kenji Oya teach both customers and staff how to make kobea.
Kobel ambassador Kenji Oya, butcher Janne Saraste and GLO-Berry CEO Japan Yoshihisa Ito answer questions related to gourmet meat at Järvenpää Citymarket.
Kobe meat In addition, Järvenpää’s K-Citymarket also offers plenty of other specialties in honor of Japan Week, such as live sea urchins and fresh wasabi, as well as handcrafted giant grapes.
The latter are related to the Japanese tradition of exporting handcrafted specialty fruits as gifts.
“There, these fruits are grown one at a time as such gift gifts and they have to be like works of art. They pay insanely, but these also became a wish to be sold. ”
Järvenpää’s K-Citymarket has previously been featured in the media thanks to Japanese food culture.
“I would like to make Järvenpää the sushi capital of Finland,” Hautala said In an interview with Helsingin Sanomat already in 2018.
In 2019, Järvenpää’s K-Citymarket was chosen as the best food store in the world.
