Instructions

  1. Put 1 pound of tong ho into the bowl. Then, pour 8 cups of water and soak it for 15 minutes. After that, rinse and wash it at least 3 times before using it because it has sand and mud. 
  2. Next, put 1 pound of baby bok choy into the bowl. Pour 8 cups of water and soak it for 15 minutes. After that, rinse and wash it at least 3 times because it has sand and mud. 
  3. Peel 1 daikon (1 pound). Then, cut it into chunks. 
  4. Open 1 pack (5.29 oz) of enoki mushrooms. Then, cut the bottom root. Wash and rinse it. 
  5. Cut open 1 pack (5.29 oz) seafood mushrooms. After that, remove the root. Then, wash and rinse it. 
  6. After, cut 8 oz of long deep fried tofu into squares or cubes. 
  7. Cut 1 block (19 oz) of soft tofu into cubes. 
  8. Personally, I like soya ring roll (deep fried tofu skin) for Chinese hot pot. Open 1 pack (5.93 oz) of soya ring roll and put them on the plate.  
  9. Then, open 1 pack (8 oz) of fish ball, 1 pack (8 oz) of fish ball with roe, 1 pack (8 oz) of beef balls and 1 pack (8 oz) of imitation of lobster balls. Put them on the plate. 
  10. We like shrimp as a seafood option. Open 1 bag (12 oz) of raw XL no shell shrimp, rinse it and place them in a bowl.
  11. Buy or cut your own thin sliced meats. We like thin sliced beef with some fat. Usually it is ribeyes or beef steak for hot pot. Place 1 pound of thin sliced beef on the plate. 
  12. Our family likes udon noodles for hot pot. Therefore, open 1 package (2.42 pounds) of frozen udon noodles and place them on the plate. 
  13. Pour 8 cups of water into each side of the pot. (Adjust the amount of water depending on the size of your pot.) 
  14. Then, add 1 pack (7.1 oz) of tomato flavored soup base into one side of the pot. ( I used non-spicy tomato flavored, you can use spicy soup base.)
  15. The other side of the pot, we like to use miso paste or Korean soybean paste. Add ¼ cup of Korean soybean paste (doenjang) into the water. Mix it well. Then, add ¼ cup of fried shallots. Turn on a high fire and let it boil. 
  16. While waiting for the soup base to boil, put 2 tablespoons of sa cha sauce, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 2 tablespoons of chili oil into a bowl. 
  17. Mix it well and divide it into a small dipping dish.
  18. Once the soup base boils, you can start adding ingredients like daikon, dried tofu, noodles, vegetables, shrimp and beef.

Notes

  • Shop for ingredients, tools and choose your favorite ingredients. 
  • Then, open packages, wash and cut ingredients if necessary. 
  • For leafy greens vegetables, I usually soak them for 15 minutes. Then, rinse and wash them at least 3 times because it has sand and mud. 
  • After that, start with the broth. You can use soup base packages or customize your own. 
  • Usually, I will put the food that takes longer to cook into the broth first such as daikon, dried or fried tofu.  
  • Be patient and wait until the broth is boiling. 
  • Then, add a small amount of food each time. 
  • Do not overcook the food.
  • Only cook the food you plan to eat. 
  • Add more water or broth when you see the soup base is low level.
