पृष्ठभूमि

Born from the laboring river trackers of the Yangtze who threw cheap offal into communal pots to mask the gaminess. The solid beef tallow base provides a heavy, coating mouthfeel that modern vegetable-oil hotpots lack.

स्थानीय रहस्य

"Do not mix broths. Order the pure red oil. Use the 'Up and Down Seven Times' rule to blanch tripe (Maodu) in the violently boiling center square for exactly 15 seconds to achieve the perfect snap. Coat everything in pure sesame oil and garlic before eating to extinguish the capsaicin fire."
