Shabu Shabu pork neck Livar 2mm

With Shabu Shabu pork neck, you are bringing home a special piece of meat: pork neck from LIVAR pigs, sliced wafer-thin into slices of just 2 millimeters. Because the meat is so thin, it only needs to be cooked briefly. A few seconds in hot broth or briefly on the grill is enough to bring out the full flavor of the monastery pig.

What is Shabu Shabu?

Shabu Shabu is a Japanese way of eating in which thinly sliced meat is briefly dipped in boiling broth. The meat cooks very quickly and retains its tenderness and flavor. The thin slicing makes the pork neck, normally a tough cut of meat from the neck of the pig, surprisingly tender and suitable for this quick preparation. The result is a dish that you prepare and share directly at the table, exactly as intended in a traditional Shabu Shabu meal.

LIVAR – Limburg monastery pig

The meat comes from LIVAR, better known as the Limburg monastery pig. LIVAR is unique in the Netherlands and the only pig concept with a 3-star Beter Leven quality mark from the Dutch Society for the Protection of Animals. The pigs are raised in Limburg and fed with grains from the region. They grow up under the supervision of the monks of Lilbosch Abbey and on small-scale farms that share the same values. This results in meat with a distinct, recognizable flavor that is perfect for a product such as this Shabu Shabu pork neck.
