Hotpot

Hotpot, also known as “huoguo” in Chinese, is a popular communal meal where diners cook fresh ingredients in a simmering pot of flavored broth at the table. This interactive dining experience brings people together, allowing them to customize their meal with thinly sliced meats, seafood, vegetables, tofu, and noodles. The broth can be spicy (like Sichuan mala) or mild (such as mushroom or chicken), catering to different tastes. Dipping sauces like sesame paste, garlic, and chili oil enhance the flavors. Hotpot is not just a meal but a social event, enjoyed worldwide for its warmth, variety, and rich taste. Perfect for gatherings, it’s a must-try culinary adventure!
