Japanese Shabu-Shabu

Japanese Shabu-Shabu is a popular Japanese dish consisting of thinly sliced beef and vegetables cooked in a hot pot of kombu dashi broth. It is typically served with dipping sauces and a variety of condiments. The name “shabu-shabu” is derived from the sound of the beef being swished in the hot broth.
