Shabu | Sukiyaki sirloin Black Angus Argentina

Shabu | Sukiyaki sirloin Black Angus Argentina is thinly sliced beef for Japanese style cooking at the table. Think of slices that you pass briefly through hot broth, or cook in a pan with sukiyaki sauce, vegetables and noodles. Sirloin has a slightly firmer bite than ribeye and a fine fat edge that brings flavour while cooking. That makes it a good choice when you want tender beef, but not the richest cut on the table. Because the slices are cut thin, they are ready in seconds. Do not leave them in the broth or pan for too long. Just let them colour, let them cook and eat straight away. That is when the beef tastes best. With rice, shiitake, spring onion and a soft egg, you can turn it into a proper meal without much work.

What is Shabu | Sukiyaki sirloin?

Sirloin is cut from the striploin of the animal. This part sits along the back and gives beef with a clear fat edge and a pleasant structure. For shabu shabu and sukiyaki, the sirloin is sliced very thin, so the meat cooks quickly and stays tender. With shabu shabu, you pass the slices through hot broth for a few seconds. With sukiyaki, you cook them in a rich sauce with soy, mirin and a little sweetness. Sirloin takes on those flavours well, but still keeps its own beef flavour. That makes this cut very useful for cooking at the table. You do not need to be a chef. A pan, good broth or sauce and a few good ingredients are enough.

Black Angus Argentina

Black Angus beef is known for its fine marbling, full beef flavour and juicy texture. You notice that especially with thinly sliced beef, because the small lines of fat melt quickly and bring flavour without making the dish heavy. Argentinian beef has earned its reputation for a reason. The cattle grow in a country with wide open pampas, where space, grass and herbs play a big part. That natural setting gives the beef a pure flavour with character. It does not need much. A good broth, some soy, sesame or ponzu and you are already there. Black Angus and sirloin make a strong match for shabu and sukiyaki: tender, full of flavour and a little leaner than the ribeye version.
