Shabu Shabu

Shabu-shabu means “swish-swish,” referring to the swishing action when you cook a very thin slice of beef in hot

water.

On a portable range, place a medium-sized pot (1/2 gallon should do). Place a couple of slices of kombu (a sort of

kelp) and cover with cold water. Gently bring the water to a boil and remove the kombu just before it actually starts

to boil. When the water is boiling very, very gently, you’re set.

On your table you should have: (for 4 people)

Ingredients

* 1 lb very thinly sliced beef (sirloin), preferably grain-fed. Beer-fed

Kobe beef is the best. I MEAN VERY THIN (less than 1/16 inch)

* 8 shiitake mushrooms

* 1/2 lb enoki mushrooms

* 1/2 lb shimeji mushrooms

* 1/2 lb shirataki

* 1 lb chinese cabbage

* 1/2 lb watercress, to substitute for spring chrysanthemum leaves

* 1 lb tofu, cut in 1 in. cubes, pressed and drained

* any other ingredients you want to use

Dipping sauce

* In a small bowl, you should have soy sauce and lemon juice 2:1, as a

dipping sauce.

Simply take one of the items, swish it around in the hot water for from a few seconds for beef to a few minutes for

vegetables. Serve with hot steamed rice.

Enjoy!
