Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the rich and savory broth for your Shabu-Shabu. In a pot, combine the water and all the broth ingredients (dried anchovies, dried frigate tuna, dried prawns, kombu, onion, green onions, daikon radish). Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to fully meld. Once the broth is deeply infused, strain it through a sieve for a clear liquid. Season with fish sauce and salt to taste. You can add more salt if needed to achieve your desired flavor balance.
Step 2
While the broth is simmering, prepare your fresh vegetables for the Shabu-Shabu. Wash the bok choy thoroughly and trim off the tough bottom ends for a neat presentation.
Step 3
Clean the mini Napa cabbage leaves and trim any bruised or discolored outer leaves. Prepare them for dipping into the hot broth.
Step 4
Prepare the mushrooms by trimming off any tough ends. This includes the king oyster mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, and enoki mushrooms.
Step 5
For the king oyster mushrooms, slice them thinly to ensure they cook quickly and evenly in the hot broth.
Step 6
Now, let’s get the vibrant vegetables ready for your Vietnamese summer rolls. Thinly julienne the beetroot and carrot. Their bright colors will make your rolls visually appealing.
Step 7
Wash the perilla leaves and thinly slice them into strips. These will add a wonderful aroma and flavor to your summer rolls.
Step 8
Cut the bell peppers in half and carefully remove the seeds and white membranes from the inside.
Step 9
Julienne the bell peppers into thin strips, about 3cm in length. These will add a delightful crunch and color.
Step 10
Thinly julienne the onion and cabbage as well. Slicing them thinly will make them easier to eat raw in the summer rolls.
Step 11
Gently rinse the salad sprouts in water with a splash of vinegar, then drain well. Rinse the bean sprouts and drain them thoroughly. Once all your ingredients are beautifully arranged around the simmering pot, your Shabu-Shabu Vietnamese Summer Roll feast is ready! Serve with your favorite dipping sauces such as sweet chili sauce, peanut sauce, or fish sauce for an extra burst of flavor. Enjoy your delicious meal!
Step 12
Arrange all the prepared ingredients attractively on platters around the table. Your stunning Vietnamese Summer Roll Shabu-Shabu spread is now complete! Serve with your preferred dipping sauces and savor every bite.
