There's a 4th way to eat an egg at hotpot. I learned and experienced it with my Korean friend. At the end of your meal you leave about an inch to 2 inches of broth. You ask for rice with a little sesame oil and dried seaweed flakes on top. You dump that in, crack the egg in and stir quickly. The heat is off at this point, btw. Let it sit for a min after you've stirred and OMG, it's the best!!!!!! Try it!

If you're able to find Taiwanese Sausage (香肠), DUMP IT IN. It's life changing. I swear. It takes in all the goodness from the soup, and sweetens the soup while still keeping some sweetness. It's just phenomenal when you bite into it. The only thing you need to make sure is to cook it thoroughly (it taste better the longer you let it sit in the soup anyway) or else you'll bite into something raw and unpleasant

@woihjsd8 жыл бұрын
Not at a restaurant bc the broth is always meat based. you can do hotpot at home very easily. use veggie broth as your base and prep all your veggies. i like tofu, bean sprouts, any/all mushrooms, carrots, celery, sweet potatoes, golden potatoes, corn, vegan sausage if you like that, jalapenos, spinach, kale, onions, dried dates... reallly any of your fave veggies will work. and rice noodles of course. ive done this for vegan hotpot night. it was awesome.

ShotgunLlama hot pot bases can be complicated but they can also be simple. At home I usually just use a few cloves of garlic, two whole stalks of spring onion or scallion, don't cut it up put the whole thing in there so you don't accidentally take it out, a handful of dried mushrooms (fresh also will do) and a slice or two of ginger. It's a very mild Soup base and you can add chilli flakes and chilli oil or whatever to spice it up if you like but if you don't like spice a mild base is enough, because the important flavours are in the dipping sauce. At home I use one of those stand alone convention stoves at the dinner table, and it is super simple. For dipping sauce, you can find sesame sauce and salty preserved chives in the condiment section of any Asian grocery

Sichuan hotpot usually don't use sesame sauce ,they just use oil sauce with minced garlic and cilantro and scallion. And cow stomach (there are two kinds of cow stomach ,flat stomach 毛肚and thousand layer of stomach千层肚. as you know,cow has four stomach lol ) and throat of cow or pig 黄喉 and goose gut or duck gut鹅肠or鸭肠,I know it sounds weird and it's the most popular dish ordered in Sichuan. They usually don't order sliced beef or pork,I think that's more like a north maybe original from Mongolia way to eat hotpot. Both are good ,but Sichuan hotpot is much more spicy.

My Chinese friends who own a restaurant introduced me to hotpot a few years ago, I love it. But spam... oh man, I grew up eating that stuff as a cheap alternative to ham. And then my Chinese friends introduced me to spam in hotpot and other dishes and I've grown to love it again. The chef at their restaurant does an awesome spam fried rice, just awesome. He also does chow mein with spam which is also pretty good, but the rice is better! Great video guys, thanks,

Nathalie Sagt Actually they type of spice food found in Asian are way hot than in North America, and most Westerners can't handle that kind of heat.

Not to say every Westerner can't handle it, but a majority can't.

There are few things that I respectfully disagree with Mike how to eat hotpot. 1. Sauce is not that important to my opinion because if the soup is right, sauce is not needed. Personally, the sauce (mix whatever you want as in this video) may ruin the taste of lamb or beef when cooked properly (not overcooked like Mike) 2. You don't dump everything into the pot, specially beef and lamb! As the lady points it out "too crowded". The point of eating hotpot is to take your time and enjoy the food. 3. You don't need to drink yogurt before or after you eat hotpot; it really depends on your body. For people who has stomach issues such ulcer, gastritis, reflux..then try not to eat spicy soup base; you just need the regular soup (non spicy) 4. Not all hotpot's soup is acidic as Mike says. It all depends what is the soup. 5. Poaching egg is the best method of eating hotpot because it is cooked in flavorful soup, not to cook the whole egg as Mike does because the ingredients of soup can't penetrate the egg's shell.

In some part of china the soup is pure water,so sauce is very important.

Just because someone has acid reflux, or a weak stomach, does not mean they should be stripped of flavor. I love spicy foods, as do my kids. I often get heartburn just from Pop, but I can eat spicy food just fine.

foods I eat all the time in asia: dumplings (especially chocalate dumplings at this awesome place in Asia) , hotpot, snow flake moon cakes, turtle shell, and dragons beard candy. I love drinking boba or 'bubble tea' .

I actually referenced Mike Chen's style when I ate at Haidilao Hot Pot. I ordered tripe and frog I believe with no noodles or rice. I tried to replicate his sauce selection but, didn't watch the video beforehand. Had a great experience. Had to use my left hand to eat due to my other being tired. Great thing I'm ambidextrous. Thanks Mike!
