Do Some Prep Work

Begin by setting a date and inviting your friends and family with plenty of notice. Decide on a menu and buy all the necessary ingredients and utensils. Make sure you have plenty of cooking options, such as broth, vegetables, meat, and seafood.

You also need dipping sauces, condiments, and salads. Have snacks ready in case of guests are hungry while they wait. Set up the hot pot table and have a place to plug it in.

Make sure you have enough chairs and serving ware to accommodate everyone that is attending. By doing these steps ahead of time, your hot pot party will be one to remember.

Buy The Vegetables

Start by making a list of the vegetables that you’ll need for the hot pot at home. Consider the variety of flavors that you would like to include, as well as the colors and textures of the vegetables.

Consider adding cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, kale, and bok choy. Make sure to add more flavorful vegetables, such as mushrooms and sweet peppers.

Once you have your list, purchase the necessary vegetables from a farmer’s market or supplier. Be sure to buy the freshest vegetables you can find to ensure the highest quality of flavor.

Set The Table

You will need a large bowl in the middle of the table to store the broth. Around the bowl, place plates of thinly sliced meats, vegetables, and seafood. To the side of the bowl, arrange a plate with a selection of sauces, condiments, and spices.

Depending on your preference and the number of guests, you may want to also place several smaller bowls for guests to portion their meals. Ensure also to provide plenty of clean plates for guests to use for their hot pot.
