Konteksto sa Kultura
Ang yangsheap ay Bhutanese na nilagang karne ng yak — sentral ang yak sa lutuing pang-altitude ng Bhutan. Ang yak ay nakatira sa ibabaw ng 3000m altitude; ang karne nila ay mas patago at mas matindi kaysa sa baka. Iniuugnay ang putahe sa mga altitude valley ng Bhutan tulad ng Bumthang.
