Shabu shabu is a Japanese nabemono hot pot dish of thinly sliced meat and vegetables boiled in water at the table and served with dipping sauces. Its onomatopoeic name comes from the swishing sound made when the ingredients are stirred in the cooking pot, and each piece is cooked individually by the diner. Shabu shabu is generally more savory and less sweet than sukiyaki, another Japanese hot pot dish.
