Shabu-Shabu  しゃぶしゃぶ


Shabu-Shabu

The name well expresses the distinctive aspect of this dish. The Japanese hear the sound of lightly swishing the very thinly sliced beef in boiling water, then taking it out, as "shabushabu." Very high-grade beef is sliced no thicker than one to two millimeters and laid out on a plate. To eat, one slice is put into the boiling water for three to four seconds until the color of the meat changes. This is then dipped into a sauce based on soy sauce or pounded sesame dressing and eaten.
