Haidilao Clear Oil Spicy Hot Pot Base

洋服に匂いがつきにくい!サラッとキレのある定番の麻辣鍋

Spice 4 Vegetarian, Vegan

Description

The flagship product of the globally popular hot pot chain Haidilao. Based on vegetable oil (rapeseed) rather than beef tallow, so the oil doesn't solidify and feels lighter on the stomach. Characterized by intense chili heat and numbing Sichuan pepper with a clean aftertaste.

Trivia

The hot pot chain 'Haidilao' conquered China with its insane 'god-tier service' (free manicures, noodle dances). This single packet perfectly recreates the Haidilao flavor at home.

Eating tips & etiquette

Compared to beef tallow (Niu You) bases, it leaves less 'hot pot smell' on clothes and hair. Because it's extremely spicy, beginners should use only half or enjoy it half-and-half with a plain broth (Yuan Yang pot).
