This weather is perfect for hot pot, eh! We’ve been having one every week. The miso one that we get in particular is goddamn delectable and tastes so close to Kamakura Soup with Noodles that I could cry.
(Also, love the avatar you’ve chosen for in here! So good).
Yeah we’ve been having it a lot too! I love making my own base because the sort we like you can’t really get out here. We both loveeee the soy milk broth (don’t knock it til you’ve tried it. I was out off by the idea for so long and I regret denying myself something so tasty for so many years). And I’ve doing a really good kimchi base.
This one will be interesting because I think it’ll be a case of too many cooks in the kitchen. There’s a mix of chinese, Korean and Japanese people going (+ me, the token Australian) and they all have different cultural opinions on what a hot pot should be. Me, I’m just along for the ride/delicious food.
(And thanks! I tried to think of something cooler and edgier, like something from a Junji Into manga or something, but nah. The 90s wren won out)
I was going to ask if you buy a base from somewhere - the only issue I have with the one we buy is that is has a tonne of sodium in it.
And yeah, that sounds like the recipe (pun intended) for a potential disaster with so many different opinions, but it could also be a beautiful, chaotic moment that results in the ultimate fusion.
