🩷 Simple, balanced, and beautifully clean — a quick home-style shabu-shabu you can finish in under 20 minutes.
It takes just water, a few pantry sauces, and lots of fresh greens.
And somehow, it feels like comfort in its purest form.
🏡 Intro
Shabu-shabu is one of those meals that makes you feel instantly healthier.
The kind of food that doesn’t weigh you down — it lifts you up.
Maybe it’s the mountain of fresh vegetables.
Or the way thin beef slices swirl through broth for just a few seconds before melting in your mouth.
At our home, this dish never gets old. It’s something we come back to again and again.
And when served with a touch of wasabi soy sauce or Vietnamese roll sauce?
It becomes unexpectedly addictive.
We don’t fuss. We don’t overcook.
We just get everything in the pot, gently blanch, and eat clean.
That’s the magic.
📋 Ingredients (Serves 4)
✅ Water – 1500ml
✅ Broth Tablets – 2 pcs (Haetongryeong)
✅ Otoki Katsuo Soy Sauce – 10 tbsp
✅ Mizkan Tsuyu – 2 tbsp
✅ Pink Salt – ½ tbsp (Montosco)
✅ Assorted Vegetables – 1 pack (washed)
✅ Thinly Sliced Beef – 300g (Good Taste Beef)
🧑🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Bring 1500ml of water to a boil.
2️⃣ Add 2 broth tablets, 10 tbsp katsuo soy sauce, 2 tbsp tsuyu, and ½ tbsp salt.
3️⃣ Once boiling, add all vegetables and blanch lightly (do not overcook).
4️⃣ Add sliced beef and cook briefly until just tender.
📌 Don’t let anything boil too long — vegetables will wilt and beef can get tough.
💡 Tips
🔹 Blanch, don’t boil. Just a light touch brings the best flavor and texture.
🔹 Use broth tablets and soy sauces instead of complex soup bases.
🔹 Pair with wasabi soy or Vietnamese dipping sauce for contrast.
🔹 Want extra depth? Add chili slices or garlic at the end.
