Steak

Bonito steak is a thick cross-cut or loin portion for grilling—dark, robust, tuna-family. It behaves like a meaty fish steak: hot surface, short time, rest briefly. Season simply; finish with acid or herb oil. Fresh grill fish and dried katsuobushi for dashi are different products. Doneness is judged by flake and translucency, not beef habits alone.
