Bean and Rice Hot Pot

This authentic Guizhou hot pot captures the gentle flavors of mountain wildness and home cooking. Simmered until tender, kidney beans form the base, paired with seasonal fresh vegetables and cured meats. Its sweet yet mild taste appeals to all ages. Gathered around the stove for slow cooking, it fills the air with comforting warmth and contentment.

The broth is velvety and rich, its bean sweetness intertwined with savory meaty notes, delivering a salty, mellow flavor with a lingering sweetness. Vegetables soaked in the broth offer refreshing sweetness to cut through richness, while cured meats like bacon and sausage add deep, robust flavor. Each bite is warm and satisfying without being heavy, layering delicate aromas that caress the palate. This “slow-simmered home-style flavor” for the stomach is simple yet unforgettable.
