Shabu Shabu – what is it?
If someone is not familiar with this type of dish, I will briefly explain what it is.
Shabu Shabu comes from Japan and is a one-pot dish. Various ingredients are cooked in one pot, such as thinly sliced beef, vegetables, and eggs. The cooked ingredients are then dipped in the sauce and eaten. Currently, the name Schabu Schabu has a broader meaning because seafood, poultry, and pork can also be eaten in this way.
There are different types of pots for preparing this dish. In modern restaurants, this is usually a large pot divided into two parts for cooking. You can also often come across older types of pots like the one in the photo below. The convex round part is used for frying ingredients, while around it there is a part for cooking in water. Depending on the restaurant, you can find different types of pots.
