Trivia
Haidilao spread the elements of Yunnan's regional 'Wild Mushroom Hot Pot' nationwide as an easy soup base. A masterpiece soup that makes you realize China's massive mushroom consumption, with an umami approach slightly different from Japan.
Eating tips & etiquette
Pork or chicken pairs best. Boiling massive mushrooms in this broth doubles the umami. Making Zosui (rice porridge) at the end creates a mushroom risotto so delicious you'll lose your words.
