- Tofu — Use firm tofu to prevent it from breaking apart during cooking.
- Mushrooms — Choose mushrooms with a firm texture, such as shiitake or button mushrooms.
- Potatoes — Slice the potatoes thinly to ensure they cook through in the hot pot.

- To add more flavor to the broth, you can add a dash of Dutch gin or a splash of beer.
- Experiment with different dipping sauces like Dutch mayonnaise or sweet chili sauce.
- If you prefer a spicier hot pot, add some Dutch chili peppers to the broth.
- Don't overcook the ingredients in the hot pot to maintain their texture and flavor.
- Serve the Dutch-style Hot Pot with a side of crusty bread or boiled potatoes.
Serving advice
Serve the Dutch-style Hot Pot in individual bowls, allowing each person to customize their own combination of cooked ingredients and dipping sauce. Provide chopsticks, slotted spoons, and napkins for a traditional hot pot experience.
