Introduction

Yunnan is famed for its wild mushrooms, and this hotpot slow-simmers several kinds into a clear, sweet-finishing umami broth for dipping seasonal vegetables and tofu.

Wellness Benefits

  • Wild mushrooms boost qi, strengthen the spleen and provide quality plant protein and polysaccharides for vitality.
  • Corn strengthens the spleen and drains damp, and the gently simmered clear broth is moistening rather than drying, suiting every season.

Nutrition Highlights

  • Rich in mushroom protein, minerals and umami with little fat.
  • The reserved soaking liquid intensifies the broth naturally.

Tips

  • Save the strained mushroom-soaking water for an even deeper broth.
  • Always cook wild mushrooms thoroughly before eating.
