Your experience in Japan would not be complete without a delicious dinner of shabu shabu and sake. I was invited into the home of Mrs. Masako Yamada's to learn the art of Japanese cooking and to experience eastern hospitality at it's finest. Kevin Brauch, The Thirsty Traveler

Ingredients

Shabu Shabu: 

Miso Dipping Sauce:

Soy Sauce Dipping Sauce:

Directions

  1. Pour sake and water into a large frying pan or wok and bring to boil. Once boiled, turn down heat and simmer. Cook pork slices 1 at a time. Remove each slice and cool in a strainer. Place cool pork slices on a plate and refrigerate while making dipping sauce. Serve with Miso Dipping Sauce and Soy Sauce Dipping Sauce.

Miso Dipping Sauce:

  1. Place all ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved. The consistency of the sauce should be that of gravy.
