They are all hot pots. Old Beijing hot pot, Chongqing hot pot and Chaoshan hot pot are very different in eating methods.
When we used to talk about hot pot, we always thought of Chongqing hot pot. Nowadays, with the improvement of living standards, people are paying more and more attention to food, and the culture of diet has become a very important part of people’s daily life. Every city has delicious food from all over the country, and hot pot is no longer exclusive to Sichuan and Chongqing, and its figure is all over the country.

Hot pot is a very simple way to eat. It doesn’t need to go through very complicated procedures to make dishes. It just needs to prepare a pot bottom and put the prepared lettuce in the pot bottom to cook. Although eating hot pot has no complicated cooking process, we still need to cook the dishes ourselves, so we also need some skills in the process of eating hot pot. In particular, the order of hot pot dishes is particularly important, because the order of dishes will affect the bottom of the pot, thus affecting the taste of food.

So what should be the correct order of putting vegetables in the pot? How can I put it without affecting the taste at the bottom of the pot and eat the most delicious food? For this reason, I consulted a good friend who has been a manager in a hot pot restaurant for three years. He said that you can see many real senior foodies in the store. The order in which they put food is recorded in their own notebooks, and the waiters in the store follow the record when they see it, so that they can also put food in this order when they eat it themselves in the future. What is the specific order? Share it with everyone today, and then go to eat hot pot later, in this order!

When eating special hot pots in different places, we need to have different orders. After all, the soup bases of hot pots in different places are different, and some even look different. Therefore, we should arrange the correct steps of putting vegetables according to the bottom and pot.
The first kind: old Beijing hotpot
Speaking of hot pot, I have to say old Beijing instant-boiled mutton hot pot, which is the originator of hot pot. Mutton copper pot generally uses clear water, so its soup base is relatively light. When we eat hot pot, we should rinse the sheep’s tail oil first. Listening to this name, we know that the sheep’s tail oil is a piece of pure fat. Putting it into the pot first can make the bottom of the pot not so light. Then we’ll cut the mutton. Hand-cut mutton has a very big feature, even if the plate is upside down, the mutton will not fall off, but will stick tightly to the plate. And there is no blood left on the plate.

The second kind: Chongqing hot pot
Chongqing hot pot is a very famous hot pot, and many people will go to Chongqing specifically to eat an authentic hot pot. The bottom of Chongqing hotpot is not as light as that of old Beijing mutton hotpot. If it is a very authentic hot pot restaurant, it will generally use the bottom of Jiugongge pot. So at this time, we should pay attention not only to the order of the dishes, but also to which grid to put the dishes in. As the name implies, Jiugongge hot pot has nine grids at the bottom of the hot pot, but the grid positions are different and the firepower of the hot pot is different.

The fire power in several squares next to Jiugongge hot pot is relatively small, so you can put cooking-resistant food in these squares, such as meatballs, brain flowers, blood curd, old meat slices and so on. The longer these foods are cooked, the better they taste, so you don’t have to worry about the bad taste when you eat hot pot.
The third kind: Chaoshan hot pot
Chongqing hot pot is a very heavy-flavored hot pot, which is famous for its spicy taste. Many people are not used to this kind of spicy taste, so let’s talk about Chaoshan beef hot pot. The bottom of Chaoshan beef hot pot is very light. When we eat Beijing mutton hot pot, we will rinse the sheep tail oil first. It will be better to eat other meat after there is oil and water in the bottom of the pot, but Chaoshan hot pot is just the opposite. When eating Chaoshan hot pot, we should change from light to greasy, that is, we should eat lean meat first and then fat meat. After rinsing the fat meat, an oil layer will appear in the soup base. At this time, the soup base has become very greasy. We can add vegetables to the hot pot and eat it very refreshing.

Every place has a profound food culture, and hot pot is an important part of our food culture. When eating hot pot, if you can correctly grasp the order of dishes, you can get a better experience of eating hot pot.
