Hello.

Due to the cold weather of the past few days, we feel the arrival of autumn in earnest at Tategamori Ark Ranch in Iwate Prefecture.
It is the fan heater first appearance in our home this season!

Speaking of autumn...

autumn of appetite
autumn of reading
autumn of appetite
sports fall
autumn of appetite
autumn of art
autumn of appetite

I'm sorry I'm full of appetite (lol)

So today I'm going to talk about delicious pork.

Suddenly there is a problem!

Which part of the meat is the softest?

①: fillet
②: Filet meat
③: Filet Meat

Tic Tac…⏰
Tic Tac…⌛
Tick tock…⌚

…

Ping Pong! Ping-pong! Ping-pong! !

Everyone is wonderfully correct!

that's right!
The "fin" is the softest part of the meat.

yeah…? that…? ?

What about ② and ③?
Some of you may be thinking, but it's okay!
Of course you are right!

② "Here" is called like this in the Kinki and Kansai areas.

The “filet” in ③ is the French word “filet” (pronounced “filet”).
In the first place, it is said that the word “filet” is the origin of both “fin” in ① and “here” in ②.

By the way, in English it is called "tender loin".
Therefore, it is also correct to answer "tenderloin", which is not an option.

At the Tategamori Ark Ranch Farm Market and the Tategamori Ark Ranch Online Shop, fillets and blocks are sold under the name of "filet".

This is Tategamori Kogen pork fillet.

It's long and narrow.

1 to 2 pigs.
The fat, sinew, and remaining bones are removed from here, so the total weight of the two products is only 800g to 900g.

So why is it the softest?

It's a muscle that doesn't move much.
Compared to other parts, the amount of exercise is overwhelmingly small.

Therefore, the fineness of meat quality is No. 1.

Tonkatsu is the recommended way to eat it.

Gabu! ! ! …I want you to nibble on it.

You will be impressed by its softness.

By the way...

What is "katsu" in tonkatsu? ?
A little bit of talk.

It's pronounced the same as "karu!", which means victory, so it's often used for gen.

The name comes from the French word "cotelette".
"Cotelette" is a French dish in which breaded meat is fried and grilled.
In English, it is called "cutlet".
It is said that this was accentuated to ``cutlet'' and further abbreviated to ``katsu''.

It's getting colder and colder from now on.

I want to win against various infectious diseases by enhancing my immune system in my body and mind while enjoying the taste of autumn.
