What salt-block sear means
Where it comes from
A heated salt-block presentation is a modern restaurant technique that combines a cooking surface with seasoning. Block temperature and whether the diner or kitchen finishes the meat vary by venue.
How it works
Wagyu is finished on a hot salt block at your table, which sears and lightly salts each piece as you cook it. The block's residual heat lets you cook each slice to your own preference.
What to look for
The block can add salt, so taste before adding more. Confirm origin and grade before ordering, follow the venue's handling instructions, and keep raw and cooked utensils separate when cooking at the table.
