I like to host guests at my home from time to time, and I am gathering  recipes of different dishes and drinks to keep things interesting. I am interested in trying some Hong Kong  dishes. Can you give me a recipe for Hot Pot?

Sure!  There are many different types of Hot Pot, and the ones I see the most often in the US are based on broth.  So let’s start with that.  Have you heard of Soy Milk Hot Pot?

Your video link isn't working, but that recipe for broth sounds interesting. Do any traditional broths for Hot Pot ever simmer with vegetables for the broth?
user
This is a great idea!  I don’t know that traditional recipes ever call for simmering vegetables with the broth, but we could definitely try it!  I don’t know what kinds of vegetables you like, but one simple option would be to take a tablespoon of ginger and a quarter cup of Chinese cabbage, and simmer them together with 1 quart of chicken broth for an hour.  You can experiment with different vegetables as well, and see which ones you like.

That sounds like a good idea! I hear ginger is good for your health.
