The more you cook it, the more flavorsome it is

Originating from the Chinese city of Chengdu over 1800 years ago, Maocai has been the most popular food on the streets of China today. Vegetables, meat, mushrooms, etc. are prepared and cooked in a pre-made broth and served alone or with rice. The pre-made broth is made with a variety of valuable herbs, supplemented by secret seasonings and common seasonings, and is suitable for both young and old. It has both the red broth of hotpot and the fragrance of malatang, with rich flavor, spicy and fresh aroma, and the more you cook it, the more flavorful it is.

What sets it apart from most types of hot pot?

Although it is similar to styles of hot pot common in this region, its chief difference lies in the fact that the ingredients are already cooked when served, and hence no simmering is done at the table.
