The main reason why troop hot pot can become a national cuisine in Korea is because it is relatively easy to make and you can eat many different dishes at the same time. In the production of troops pot only need to prepare the side dishes, and then add a little Korean kimchi and Korean hot sauce, directly on the fire stew can be, people who do not know how to cook can also make their own, without any technical content, so in South Korea by a lot of people sought after.

As the name suggests, the troop hot pot is certainly originated from the troops, when there are many U.S. troops stationed in South Korea, and the U.S. compared with South Korea, the economic strength of the U.S. is certainly better, so the U.S. soldiers' meals are also more plentiful, and these soldiers often do not eat all the food. And Korea was relatively ? Poor? A little, once the South Korean soldiers developed they have a lot of canned lunch meat, instant noodles, etc. are not eaten, so they secretly collected, to a hodgepodge.

The results did not expect to add Korean hot sauce and kimchi after the flavor is surprisingly good, so this practice is slowly spread out. Coupled with the fact that every household in Korea must have kimchi and hot sauce, so the method of manufacture is particularly simple, over time, Koreans will often eat troops hot pot, although the origins of the time are used leftovers, but now the ingredients are getting richer and richer.

In fact, the troop pots on the market are all pretty much the same, usually putting in luncheon meat, beef, zucchini, cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, instant noodles as well as rice cakes and cheese, etc., and two of the essential ingredients are Korean kimchi and Korean hot sauce. Just put these ingredients in a pot and wait for the pot to boil without adding water. You won't have to worry about the forcemeat pan getting mushy either because the cabbage that is padded in the pan will keep coming out of the water.

It's because it's so easy to make that if Koreans don't want to cook, they just need to set out the ingredients they have at home themselves and eat it, which saves a lot of time.
