Hotpot base, side dishes, oil plates are all different. Chongqing Sichuan is a family, so they all like to eat hot pot, and the birthplace of hot pot is originally from Chongqing, so Chongqing hot pot, the flavor to be more authentic. However, whether it is Chengdu or Chongqing, they all belong to the Sichuan flavor hot pot, but there are differences between them in all aspects, if you have not eaten Chongqing hot pot or Chengdu hot pot, they can not distinguish between the different, then the following is my personal opinion.

Chongqing first, Chongqing hot pot base is basically butter, and is seven points of butter three water, floating above all the dried chili peppers and peppercorns, eat up a lot of numb and spicy, but eat not tired, very fragrant, the more you eat the more flavor. And Chengdu pot bottom, more soft, usually just have spicy, hemp flavor is not very full, can be said to be soup more material less, so the more you eat the more salty, the more you eat the more flavor, and Chengdu hot pot and clear oil pot bottom, so and Chongqing hot pot compared to the Chengdu hot pot less hot pot in the ? Soul?

When it comes to side dishes, I think we Chengdu people eat hot pot is too civilized, especially girls, on the table is the first to look at the vegetarian dishes, meat is not a very good feeling, and in Chengdu vegetarian dishes category is also very much. But I eat hot pot in Chongqing, whether male or female, on the table first point meat, because the vegetarian dishes are very few,And then there is Chongqing hot pot dishes like Chongqing people as bold, like the meat are a large piece, directly into the pot to cook, loach eel more not to mention, just to remove the viscera, rinse it can be directly into the pot, looks very bold and rude feeling.

The first time I went to Chongqing to eat hot pot, to be honest, I'm a little uncomfortable, because we eat hot pot in Chengdu, the oil plate inside will put a lot of seasoning, such as: sesame oil, edamame, cilantro, green onions, garlic, oyster sauce, etc., but the Chongqing oil plate on the sesame oil and garlic, at most, there is also salt and oyster sauce, in their words, more seasoning affects the texture of the hot pot, but also really, The Chongqing oil plate is a good place to start, but the Chongqing oil plate, the Chongqing oil plate is a good place for the hot pot, but it is also true. Because the hot pot they eat is already thick in flavor, and if there is more seasoning, it does affect the taste.
