Shabu-shabu
''Shabu-shabu'' () is a Japanese ''nabemono'' hotpot dish of thinly sliced meat and vegetables boiled in water and served with dipping sauces. The term is onomatopoeic, derived from the sound – "swish swish" – emitted when the ingredients are stirred in the cooking pot. The food is cooked piece by piece by the diner at the table. ''Shabu-shabu'' is generally more savory and less sweet than ''sukiyaki'', another hot pot dish.

The president of the restaurant, Chūichi Miyake, registered the name as a trademark in 1952. ''Shabu-shabu'' became more and more popular in the Kansai region and in 1955 it was also added to the menu of restaurants in Tokyo and then spread throughout Japan. There are two common theories about the origin of ''shabu-shabu''. The first is that it comes from the Inner Mongolian hot pot known as insta ...
