Japanese pork is world-famous for its unmatched quality, taste and texture. With the growing number of Japanese pork brands in recent years, consumers are spoilt for choice. To date, there are about 400 brands of Japanese pork from various regions in the country, where pigs are lovingly hand reared in individual farms, with producers being experts in the different feed used in raising the healthiest breeds. This results in regional variations of Japanese pork, each with its own unique feature and specific flavour that Japanese pork enthusiasts have grown to love. Discover the distinctive taste of Japanese pork as the annual Oishii J-Pork Festival is back to bring you in-demand J-Pork brands and different cuts of J-pork meat!
Whether sliced thinly for shabu-shabu or cut thicker into bite-sized pieces for yakiniku, Japanese pork is tender and juicy with natural sweetness and moderate fat that melts in your mouth.
Japanese pig farms and processing plants follow HACCP and other quality control measures. To ensure food safety, traceability efforts are also made to track the pork from the beginning of the production and processing cycle through to final distribution for consumption.
What differentiates Japanese pig feed from others is its nutrient-rich content ensuring that pigs are raised in good health. Most pig feed is formulated with corn and soy beans, but Japanese pig feed is fortified organic and nutrient-rich resources such as rice and other edible food waste containing protein and carbohydrates.
Japan has produced over 400 brands of Japanese pork from pigs raised in regional farms. Each brand of pork has its own unique characteristics such as colour, fragrance and texture.
Experience the juicyness of Japanese pork meat, the natural sweetness of J-Pork fat, and the tenderness of the meat, simply grilled and eaten, also known as Yakiniku in Japan!
The Western-style menu features three dishes that take full advantage of the ingredients' natural flavours. On the nabe menu, you can enjoy shabu-shabu, a nutritious hotpot dish of thinly sliced Japanese pork and vegetables lightly boiled in flavourful, clear broth.
Pigs are cross-bred to achieve a high yield of red meat. The specially formulated, nutrient-rich feed that fattens the pigs gives the pork meat an optimally enhanced flavour.
Pigs are raised in nature with organic feed, giving the pork a highly refined and marbled appearance and moderate fat without noticeable odour.
Raised in the natural surroundings of Kumamoto prefecture on Kyushu Island, pigs enjoy clean water and fresh air for optimal health.
