Dinner: Tina and I prepared Chinese hot pot with an assortment of fish balls, beef balls, fried fish cakes, enoki mushrooms, napa cabbage, shrimp, and tofu.
Lunch: We finished off the clam chowder in another couple of bread bowls.

what do you like to use as dipping sauces for the hot pot?

Chinese Hot Pot is so delicious! I also like throwing in some Japanese shabu shabu meat for an added touch.

We like to use Sa Cha Sauce (mixed with soy sauce and a raw egg) as a dipping sauce.
The broth we started off with was just chicken broth (a can of Swanson's) and water. After everything is cooked, it takes on quite a bit of the flavors of the shrimp, fish balls, meatballs, and mushrooms.
I usually will briefly blanch some thinly sliced ribeye (just until pink), but I didn't have any yesterday.
