Shabu | Sukiyaki ribeye Black Angus Argentina

Shabu | Sukiyaki ribeye Black Angus Argentina is thinly sliced ribeye for anyone who wants to serve something special at home without making things complicated. This beef has exactly what you want for Japanese style cooking: a tender bite, enough fat for flavour and a texture that cooks fast without turning dry. Pass it briefly through hot broth, cook it in a sukiyaki sauce with soy, mirin and a little sugar, or give it a quick sear on a hot plate. It does not need much more. Ribeye is cut from the fine rib of the animal, a part that does very little work. That is why the meat stays soft and tender, even when cooked very briefly. Perfect for cooking at the table with friends, but just as good in a bowl with rice, mushrooms, spring onion and an egg on top.

What is Shabu | Sukiyaki ribeye?

Shabu and sukiyaki are both Japanese preparations where thinly sliced beef takes the lead. With shabu shabu, you pass the slices through hot broth for just a few seconds. Sukiyaki is richer, because the meat cooks in a sauce with sweet and savoury notes. Ribeye works beautifully here because it has fine marbling. That fat melts while cooking and carries the flavour of the broth or sauce. So you do not have to do much in the kitchen. Put the broth or pan on the table, lay out the ribeye slices and let everyone cook their own meat. It is proper table food, simple and full of flavour.

Black Angus Argentina

Argentinian cattle are raised in a country known for its wide open pampas. The animals have plenty of space and mainly eat grass, herbs and what nature gives them. You taste that way of life in the beef. It has a pure beef flavour, often a little firmer in character than grain fed beef. Black Angus is known for its marbling and juiciness. In ribeye, that comes together nicely, because this cut naturally carries more fat between the muscles. That fat is not just there to look good, it brings flavour. You notice that especially with thinly sliced beef. The meat stays tender, cooks quickly and still has enough character to stand next to soy, sesame, broth or a fresh ponzu.
