FAQs
What is a hotpot and how does it work?
A hotpot is a style of communal cooking originating in East Asia that involves placing raw ingredients into a simmering broth at the center of the table. Each person can then cook their own food by dipping it into the hot broth until cooked to their liking. In this vegetarian version, we use vegetable broth as the base and add plenty of flavorful ingredients like mushrooms, tofu, bok choy, and udon noodles.
Can I customize this recipe based on my dietary preferences?
Absolutely! This recipe offers many opportunities for customization based on your dietary preferences or what you have on hand in your kitchen. For example, if you’re not vegan you could add some fish sauce or shrimp to the pot for added umami flavor (though note that this would make it no longer fully vegetarian). If you’re gluten-free or soy-free, look for rice noodles instead of udon noodles and ensure any soy-based products used are labeled gluten-free.
How should I store leftovers from this hotpot recipe?
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. The vegetables may become softer when reheated but will still be delicious! When reheating either microwave individual portions or heat over low heat on stovetop; avoid boiling rapidly as this may destroy some nutrients present in vegetables which get leached out during rapid cooking process.
