Onomatopoeia never tasted so good. The cooking style is thought to have been developed by Genghis Khan and introduced to Asia through his military campaigns.<BR/><BR/>2. <A HREF="http://forums.egullet.org/index.php?showtopic=38033" REL="nofollow">eG Forums</A><BR/><BR/>The history of shabu shabu is a rather twisted one. While it is now firmly established as mainstream genre of Japanese restaurant food, it was not invented until 1948 by the owner of Junidanke, a Kyoto purveyor of ochazuke (tea on rice with garnishes). Shabu shabu was originally presented as a kind of adaptation of Mongolian food. However, rather than a specific Mongolian dish, the connection with Mongolia seems to have been largely in the fanciful imagination of shabu shabu's inventor, based upon the food tales that he had heard from Japanese who had returned from living in the ex-colony of Manchuria after the end of the war. Indeed, there is a tendency in much of East Asia to ascribe "Mongolian" tendencies to any dish that involves do-it-yourself table cooking in a hotpot or flat iron or the use of mutton or lamb. Hence there's shabu shabu's close cousin "Genghis Khan", a dish (associated with Hokkaido) of thinly sliced lamb that is either grilled at table or cooked in a hotpot. The term "shabu shabu" is a Japanese onomatopoeia, referring to the swish-swish sound that the meat makes as you pass it through the broth. The term has no connection with the Mongolian language. But in case you were wondering, it shares a common root with shabu, the usual Japanese colloquial term for methamphetamine, so-called because it gives people the shakes. <BR/><BR/>3. <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shabu-shabu#History" REL="nofollow">the Wikipedia > Shabu-Shabu > History</A><BR/><BR/>OK, these are the sites of references, though I can't say they MUST BE RIGHT!haanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07150179855376396285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795529176205181558.post-22416816820533686352008-04-27T00:34:00.000+08:002008-04-27T00:34:00.000+08:00Shabu-shabu from Genghis Khan? You're sure? I think China 涮羊肉 is from the Khan gua, but Shabu-shabu (defined as personal hot pot and dish plate) is totally a Japanese thing, hence the japanese name (of course you can argue the very origin is from Khan then I can argue it's originated from Africa because the whole human race is from there haha!)<BR/>Shabu-shabu (as defined) is all like this. But it's a strange in Malaysia they offer the dish plate but not the meat. In Taiwan it's always with meat but that could be the set but again never once we shabu-shabu without meat.Samhttp://blog.samsiu.infonoreply@blogger.com
