      @@2degucitas not at all. I have an electric induction hot plate that came with the pot. It cost maybe $30-40. You can also make hot pot in a regular pot on your stove if you don't want to buy the extra materials.
      You could cook a batch of food on the stove, move the pot to the table and have everyone scoop out what they want into their own bowl, then add the next batch of food to the pot and put it back on the stove to cook while everyone eats the first batch.

    As Chinese we have 4-5 different types of hot pot. There is charcoal based lamps hotpot with salty sesame past as dip, in South we also have plain soup based all beef (fresh cut, different part) hotpot with Sacha dip, Joshua made is more a Sichuan style which is also popular in most of China. There is another coconut chicken soup based hotpot also light. There are all fish hot pot etc. maybe only popular in certain area of China but delisious

Ma connaissance Akiko秋子, âgée d'environ 38 ans, a vécu près de Tokorozawa所沢 et est une criminelle de même niveau. Elle était la chanteuse du club de musique de l'université Meiji Onnken音研. Je les déteste. Ils sont égoïstes et m'ont fait du mal et ont tué ma famille. Je veux les tuer. Furtivement, ils s'approchent de moi et me font du mal comme des fantômes, alors je les appelle zombies. Ils sont également proches de la meilleure prétendante la plus longue Handa Takako半田貴子39 ans qui agit comme un androïde cloné, elle était une camarade de classe du lycée Kaishin et du lycée Fuji, mais est devenue une tueuse harceleuse.

      Same here. Went to China, we had 10 different hot pots at restaurants. Never ever I saw somebody have rice with it. And we had a table topped with a lot of different ingredient from which we could make our own dipping sauce. This sauce is combined with some of the broth from the hot pot itself. This is quite important I think personally. Also one of the best thing to add is yuba or mushrooms, because of squishy textures will swallow even more the flavours of the broth. Also you can finish it by poaching an egg into it!

      Funny cuz in China, it's like the most convenient family dinner you can make at home. The base looks like a hassle, but in the fridge, it keeps for ages. So it's like making pickles or something. Once you have a big jar or it in the fridge, dinner is just wash and cut yer veggies and meat, add a scoop of the base, and set up a coffee table with a hot plate in front of the TV.

    As a Chinese who grew up eating hot pot I RANNNNNNN when I saw the notification
    I'll update thoughts after watching the video
    Update: okay so he did the broth by himself which is A+ for effort bc we don't even do that! We just buy the base in a block/sauce form and cook it. However, he did add some twists that are not necessarily that authentic (e.g. mushroom powder). Food wise he's got cabbage and beef, but I wish he'd tried even more authentic ingredients, like tofu puff, lamb, enoki mushroom, white radish, lotus root, and if you're more adventurous blood curd and beef entrails. My favorite in the non-spicy broth is frozen tofu (you just freeze soft tofu and throw them in, literally) it will develop these honey-comb-like structures that soak up all the delicious broth, YUM!
    Dipping sauce wise, personally I just like to add condiments to plain Chinese-styled sesame sauce, like fermented bean curd, cilantro, green onion, chili oil, soy sauce, garlic chive blossom sauce, toasted sesame oil, and Chinese black vinegar if you like something tangy. What josh did was totally new though, and that garlic sesame sauce looks so good. I'll definitely try it out the next time I have hot pot!

    In my family, the broth is always homemade by simmering some beef beginning in the morning, and then flavored with some herbs. The dipping sauces are extremely accurate, however at our home we use sesame paste and then mix that with the sesame garlic, the soy sauce compound, and a lot of other stuff, and then loosen with a bit of broth so we can dunk it because that is how we do it at my house.
    Overall this is extremely accurate for a more high end hotpot, good video.

    also I agree with the "no rice during hotpot" comments. you already have dumplings - save more space for the beef.

    Perfect timing with your video. I just moved to the capital of hotpot, the city of Chongqing, China. There’s like 10 hot pot spots if not more less than 5 minutes away from my place. This food is paradise. For the authentic experience, take all of your spicy crystalized orange mixture and put it in a pot without a non spicy side. Just one quarter of it is just not the punch in the gut that the real thing is supposed to do to you. And don’t forget a bunch of beers, you can’t be sober by the end of this experience. Of course, nothing wrong with the non spicy and multiple variations of hotpot, but the Chongqing experience deserves a try.

    In a food processor add
    - 2 tbsp of toasted white sesame
    - 1 tbsp of rice vinegar or 1/2 tbsp of white vinegar
    - 1/2 tbsp of soy sauce
    - a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper
    - 1 tbsp of mayo
    - 2 tbsp of your broth or just water
    - 1 tbsp of sesame oil (optional but brings a nice flavour to it)

    When my (white) parents came to visit me in Japan 6 years ago, I took them to have hot pot (the Chinese type, not the Japanese nabe style).
    Man, my dad was SO disappointed and complained it was just "soup with wilted vegetables and meat you have to cook by yourself". But after the first bite, my friends, he was an enlightened man. It's a pretty famous all-you-can-eat hot pot, so I think in total we repeated everything (various meat cuts and vegetables) 3 or 4 times.
    He even made me take them to the same store again before they left Japan.
    All of this to say, nabe/hot pot is one of my favorite foods of all time. It's warm, comforting, and really delicious. If you don't have a hot pot/name restaurant close to home, please try the recipe! You will never regret it!

    As Chinese, I'm amazed how RIGHT Josh did the spicy flavor pot. Just two really important tips about enjoying hot pot: 1. You need really THIN sliced beef or lamb to maximize the flavor. 2. There is actually a dipping sauce for hot pot: half table spoon of Tahini (sesami paste), 2 table spoons of peanut butter and a table spoon of sesami oil, blend well with some non-chili soup (or just hot water) till the whole thing becomes sticky but diluted. It would be the best if you can get some of the "fermented bean curd" in it, but it's optional. Last but not least, some chopped coriander and green onions.

I know you've probably got a ton of video ideas in the works, and maybe some other people won't be super interested, but if you could make a video/recipe making Cioppino, I would die from happiness! ❤️ I had it once at a restaurant and it was SO good I had no idea you could make a fish stew like that. I've been dying to find a good recipe to recreate that experience at home! But I understand there are lots of other awesome dishes to be made too. Thanks again for all of the wisdom and the papa love. I'm pretty sure the reason my boyfriend will propose to me is because I made your pizza dough that out-pizza'd the hut. It was so good!!! And saves us so much money ❤️ Appreciate what you do ❤️

    Coconut water based soup is legit. It gives a refreshing and sweet taste to the broth. We also regularly use beef stock and prawn stock as base on top of adding Mala blocks and the chicken soup from Haidilao. You should try tofu rolls especially in the spicy soup. For the dipping sauce, chili oil and sesame oil with shaokao spices

    At our house, we keep it REALLY simple. One side is spicy, the soup base is from the supermarket. The other side is plain water, which we may put things like ginger and a cardamom. The meat that we put into the hot pot will flavour the soup anyways. Things that goes into the pot includes: hot pot lamb, hot pot pork, fish balls, vermicelli, a type vegetable, a type of mushroom, tofu, fish/shrimp and maybe a starchy root veggie like potato or taro. We use sesame paste as dipping sauce that may have green onion, garlic, soy sauce etc based on preference. Its very basic but still very tasty

    My favourite dipping sauce starts with sesame paste. Then add dark soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, ginger paste, and sweeten it with mirin. Maybe add honey garlic sauce, or any Chinese vinegar. Whatever feels good in the moment and adjusts the liquidity how you want it. We had hotpot about 2 weeks ago, but now I think we need it again.
