What Makes It Uncommon

keyboard_arrow_up

Shared Simmer

If soup puts the heart at ease, hotpot makes the heart do a happy dance. Makers Amy Hsiao and Mike Chen's starter kit provides everything you need to re-create the 1,000-year-old culinary tradition.

Start off by gearing up with your favorite apron, two pots on the stove, and the kit's ladle. Then bring Amy and Mike's acclaimed flavor bases (Rich Tomato and Chongqing Heat) to a boil, side by side. Once your broths are bubbling, cook up either of the included noodles (thick or thin ramen) along with your own veggies and proteins by adding them to the continuously simmering pools of deliciousness.

The kit also contains savory and spicy dipping sauces to customize the condiments for those freshly broth-boiled morsels. So much more than just a soup, Amy and Mike's DIY kit is a recipe for a slurpable shared experience to be enjoyed again and again.

Amy Hsiao and Mike Chen

Amy Hsiao was always interested in baking, cooking, and exploring cuisines. Realizing a lack of centralized places to look for recipes, the born-and-raised New Yorker, from Queens, decided to “create something focused specifically on Asian American nostalgia,” she says. Amy founded a baking-kit company and a dessert bar in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, where she met food social-media influencer Mike Chen. Today, they bring people together through shared, guided culinary experiences.
