Hello! This is Tenbusu Organic Market.

Today, we introduce “Boso Mochi Pork Belly Slices!,” raised with great care by Hirukawa Livestock amidst the rich nature of Boso, Chiba Prefecture. The greatest feature of this meat lies in the fact that the producer, Mr. Hirukawa, resides next to the piggery and raises the pigs considering not only their health but also their mental care. This attitude of valuing the environment and communication creates a stress-free, melt-in-the-mouth texture and deep flavor.

Boso Mochi Pork is given a custom feed blended with herbs, seaweed, and EM bacteria, and is grown slowly over approximately 210 days—longer than the usual rearing period. As a result, there is absolutely none of the odor characteristic of pork; the lean meat possesses an elegant richness, while the fat holds a light sweetness. A major strength not found in other meats is its extremely high water retention, which prevents it from becoming dry when cooked, maintaining a chewy and elastic tenderness.

Particularly, these belly slices are the "three-layered meat" portion with beautiful layers of lean meat and fat, allowing you to fully enjoy the concentrated umami unique to Boso Mochi Pork. Besides enjoying the lightness of the fat in shabu-shabu, using it in yakiniku, stir-fries, or even as an ingredient in tonjiru (pork miso soup) will allow the rendered fat to significantly elevate the flavor of the entire dish.

At our shop, we purchase these Boso Mochi Pigs as whole animals and perform butchery and deli processing while maintaining maximum freshness. Why not add a little luxury to your daily table with this safe and secure pork, condensed with the producer's love and commitment? Please experience the moving sensation of being able to enjoy even the fat deliciously at home.
