let's go to eat Hot-pot!!

As for this week's post, I am going to talk about hot-pot. Firstly, I want correct an idea.Most western people think that hot-pot is really spicy, However, there are many kinds of hot-pot, and when you eat hot-pot in Chinese restaurant, you can choose spicy soup or  light soup or half spicy and half light soup, therefore, it is suitable for everyone! 

Hot-pot is one of my favorite foods, and I love to eat it in winter because it will make me feel warm. In fact, Chinese hot-pot was invented  over 1000 years ago and until now it is still popular in China, even more and more people who are from different countries like to taste it. Chinese people like eating Hot-pot with all of their families or their workmates or friends, it is a really good way for people to get together and communicate with each other, so if you want to taste hot-pot, you must take your friends  to come with  you or it will be really boring.

 In addition, there are another type of hot-pot .People divide one big pot into some small pots, and every costumer can get one, and they put fresh foods into their own pot.It is a really modern way to eat hot-pot, and I believe most western people will like it because it is fit for their eating habits.In my opinion, I prefer the former one, the reason is that people can get more fun by eating one hot-pot.By the way, it is quiet easy to eat hot-pot, you just need to put fresh foods into the pot and wait for sevseal minutes,then when they are ripe you can eat them with special hot-pot sauce. It is so tasty! 

In the end, I hope we will have chance to go to eat Chinese hot-pot together!

    1. actually, it is salty, but not really salty,because when you put foods into the soup, the soup will become more and more salty, so the original soup is really light. we like to put chicken and pork bone into the water and boil them together about several hours and then the suop will used to make hot-pot, it is really tasty!

  2. Hey guys, you know what? Maybe we can try hot-pot after our mid-term exam. Kind of like a class party, hang out together, and bring some traditional food from your country. It will be fun. I think hot-pot is a good choice because it is easy to make, not that complicated to prepare, and it feels warm. Actually, lot of Chinese families will eat hot-pot during the winter. It is my favorite. Can't wait.~~

  3. I think that Van's suggestion is very good, I agree with Van, we can choose a time to dine together. It will be so lively. Hot-pot is a kind of traditional Chinese food, I like that, but I do not like hot pepper, so I just eat clear soup pot.
