My friend, your worry is a bit superfluous. Why do you say that? Don't be unhappy. Hot pot is not a low-grade food. Do you know why hot pot is so popular in China recently? Hot pot has a long history in China. Why didn't it become famous? Now it is particularly popular in recent decades and is deeply loved by the general public. Let me analyze it for you and you will know how extravagant it is to eat a better hot pot.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was a female politician named Empress Dowager Cixi. You should have heard that she was very fond of hot pot in her later years. Because it was extremely cold in the north, the imperial kitchen in the palace would think of ways to cook hot pots with various flavors for her. Since then, China's hot pot has spread all over China. Seeing historical hot pot is also a delicious food in the hall, and we can see his nobility from his birth. So don't underestimate the grade of hot pot.

Now, with the reform and opening up, people's living conditions are getting better and better, and there are more and more choices to eat. Gradually, people will regard hot pot as a kind of poor people's consumption. Actually, it is not. There are many high-end hot pots in first-tier cities, which are very common per capita and really beyond the average person's consumption. Of course, there are also low-grade hot pots, which can be eaten for tens of dollars.

In fact, it's good to treat guests at home with hot pot, which makes them feel close. If your guests are rich, they are afraid of being looked down upon by others, and they want to look local, it is ok, depending on what ingredients you rinse, and to what extent you want to be luxurious. It is normal to rinse a hot pot for several thousand dollars, for example, rinse the dragon, the elephant mussel, the red hairy crab, the eastern star spot, the blue dragon, and the beef from Japan. Wait a minute. It's all about showing your local tyrants.

conversely. It's normal for you to entertain guests with hot pot. No one will say anything. It depends on what you put in the pot. If all you put in is cabbage, potatoes and carrots, I guess you want to say that your atmosphere is difficult, so things are dead. The key depends on how you use them. Hot pot will be used from the palace to the civilian family. The real problem is not the hot pot, but our ideas, which need to be changed. Make friends with your heart and your heart. It also depends on what your friends like to eat, and what dishes you give your friends.

friends are happy when they eat together, and friends who really have a heart-to-heart relationship are happy when they eat pickles. This is a true friend, and they don't care too much about what they eat. Friends eating together is just an introduction. Now who hasn't eaten, mainly through the introduction, we can get together to chat and talk about life and the future of Kan Kan. This is the theme.

There is another kind of friend who can bring benefits, so you need to do what you like. You should know what kind of food your friends like. You can't buy what you like, regardless of your friends' feelings. Because you are entertaining others, you should buy what your friends like. All the dishes in the hot pot are popular. How can you say that you are stingy? You chose all the dishes with your heart. Who can say anything else? So don't worry about hot pot. Go and find out what your friends like to eat.

Being in the countryside, my family always invited people to eat hot pot during the Spring Festival for several years, and no one said that they were stingy, but they all enjoyed themselves.

why? Because there are many people. You serve the same food, you haven't eaten half of it, and the front is cold. If something happens to be delayed, the food will be cold by the time it reaches the table. The guests didn't enjoy their meal, and the host family felt sorry for it.

hotpot has no such problem. As long as you prepare rinse vegetables in advance, you can eat whatever you want then. There won't be too many dishes left, and the cooks don't have to stay in the kitchen all the time. Everyone can have a lively meal.

if you think it's still humble, then work hard on soup and vegetables. For example, stew with pig bones is used as the soup base, and shrimp, fat beef, fish balls, sausages, beef offal, tender mutton and so on are used for rinsing vegetables. There is nothing wrong with using your own vegetables as long as they are fresh.

in fact, if you put enough effort into hot pot dishes, the cost is not less than that of cooking. If you can't prepare so much at once, two hard dishes, such as braised chicken, sweet and sour fish, or more side dishes with wine.

how many portions of seasoning can be served according to the other person's preference. More wine. Everyone has a good meal. You have done the details in place, and everyone feels your sincerity. What's wrong with it?

if at this point you are still accused of poor hospitality, don't be such a friend.

Hello, everyone ~ I'm Keiko, a food author, and I'm glad to answer this question.

First of all, you can invite him to your house for dinner, which means that you have a certain emotional foundation and are no longer ordinary friends, so as a friend, he certainly won't care what you cook for him. After all, the feelings are there ~~

However, nothing is absolute. Some people will think that if you treat me like this when I come to your house, you must look down on me. In order to avoid this embarrassing thing. We'd better be well prepared to show our attention.

In Chongqing, all our friends are eating hot pot, so how can we look atmospheric? That is, prepare more ingredients. You can refer to the list of ingredients when I entertain my friends to eat hot pot.

Meat dishes: hairy belly, squid, yellow throat, luncheon meat, duck intestines, beef rolls, mutton rolls, scallops, eel, crispy meat, etc.

Vegetarian dishes: Flammulina velutipes, Chinese cabbage, cauliflower, lotus root, etc.

hello, it's a great honor to answer your questions.

it's very good to entertain friends and make hot pot in the countryside, so it won't make people feel stingy. Below I recommend the practice of hot pot.

1. prepare side dishes. The side dishes must be rich, with meat and vegetables. For example, beef rolls, mutton rolls, prawns, seafood balls, duck intestines, tofu, tofu skin, mushrooms, Flammulina velutipes, Pleurotus ostreatus, lettuce, fried balls and so on. Or know friends' preferences and prepare dishes.

2. Stir-fry hot pot ingredients. Prepare onion, ginger, garlic, pepper, anise, add a spoonful of bean paste to stir-fry red oil, and then add a large piece of hot pot bottom material to continue frying. It is best to add water, sparerib soup or chicken soup after frying. After boiling, you can rinse vegetables.

3. Mix sesame sauce.

4. The spicy and delicious hot pot has been made, and it is very lively and has an atmosphere for entertaining friends. I hope it can help you.

since we said we were friends, why should friends care? What friends eat is not the quality of ingredients, but the atmosphere and mood.

Simply eating 1 yuan pickled fish with the cheapest beer with friends. Everyone can eat and laugh all night.

On the contrary, in some hotel banquets, some lovers are not necessarily happy when they eat a table of delicious food for thousands of dollars. I can't wait for the fake smile to end. Go back and find some pig friends and dog friends to eat the barbecue on the street. . .

I believe many men can understand this feeling.

In short, if there is no shortage of money, there are many high-grade ingredients in hot pot, such as seafood.

If you don't have enough money at the end of the year, just eat casually. It's not a good friend for friends to care about these face problems. That's not what friends do.

It's really a bit monotonous to make a hot pot banquet alone. You can add another side dish, such as cucumber, peanuts or other cold dishes! The whole is not monotonous, which makes him feel very proud < P > No. It's enough to eat hot pot in winter. It's enough to eat warm, have more varieties of dishes, control enough, control enough, and drink enough with wine. Friends don't care about each other, and those who care about saying that you are cheap are not true friends. Everyone has different criteria for choosing friends.

eating hot pot is not cheap. Not stingy.

The key to cooking hot pot with prepared side dishes is that the dishes will not be cold. In winter, if the food is cold, it will lose appetite. Hot pot is different. And you can cook whatever you want. If there are people who drink, they are preparing some braised duck necks and waiting for braised dishes to be served in the store. Since we are friends, we don't care so much. It's most important to eat happily, and it's also important for the food to suit the taste.

the happiness of friends together has nothing to do with eating and drinking, and it won't make you lose face because of the simple food.

It's fun for everyone to get together!

it's a good choice to eat hot pot together in cold weather, and it also solves the problem that it's difficult to adjust!

The landlord is afraid that his friends will feel stingy, so he can cook some fried chicken or steam some crabs to match, so that everyone can eat well without being misunderstood as stingy.

Of course, if a friend feels stingy, in fact, such a person can be removed from the list of friends in his heart!
