4 Steamy Sensations: Glasgow’s Best Hot Pot
Did you know that hot pot has been around since the Three Kingdoms period (220-280)? I guess you could say hot pot has been boiling longer than your grandma’s stew recipe!
If you haven’t tried hotpot, you better get out from under that rock! It’s a Chinese dish that involves cooking thin slices of meat, vegetables, and noodles in a bubbling cauldron of savory broth.
When I had hot pot for the first time on a chilly winter night, it was love at first slurp! Just imagining that savory broth, the meat slices getting all cozy, and the veggies doing a little jig has me feeling all toasty inside (and totally drooling!)
Since then, I’ve been on a hot pot hunt all over Glasgow. So trust me when I say that once you dig into it, you’ll be wondering how you ever survived without this hot pot deliciousness!
