Comment on Foodbuzz 24, 24, 24: Chinese New Year Hot Pot Dinner by Wendy

what an amazing spread! these days, my parents use a simple divided pot over a butane powered burner. I remember growing up with the traditional hot pot that held a live charcoal fire underneath. It was always such fun.

You can find Shaoxing wine in just about any Chinese grocery store. As a replacement I would suggest using dry sherry.

I must admit that it is often hit-or-miss finding sea intestine. A few places in Flushing you can try are Chang Jiang Supermarket on Kissena Blvd or Jmart at the New World Mall. Look in the frozen food section.

Hey, i haven’t found the Shaoxing wine anywhere. I read somewhere that maybe an apple cider or red wine vinegar with sugar could replace this. Do you have any suggestions? (non alcoholic)

Coming to this one late – but just curious where you’ve seen them for sale frozen in NYC? I’ve looked around the Manhattan Chinatown shops with no luck – if I head out to Flushing, do you know a place to hit for them?

Love street food vendors although sometimes your belly don’t agree with you…everytime I visit Asia I always eat way more street food than restaurants foods!

My dad gave me 2 pots that they bought while living in Taiwan. Unfortunately one of the funnel tops on one broke, the top can be fixed but not sure what I can use, glue wise, to repair it. I would love to find recipes or a recipe book.

Unfortunately I’m not aware of a site that offers complete translations of meat cuts. It is possible to search specific cut individually. Perhaps I will put together a list and write a post.
