Hot pot is a very popular dining style in China, and in recent years, some restaurants have started to introduce truffle into their menu.
The approach is different from Western cooking — it focuses more on interaction and customization.
How truffle is used
Instead of cooking truffle in the broth, most restaurants use it as an add-on ingredient.
Customers can:
- add truffle slices into their dipping sauce
- or briefly dip it in hot soup
Basic setup
- clear broth or light chicken broth
- fresh truffle slices
- sesame sauce or oil-based dipping sauce
Why this works
Hot pot allows customers to control how much truffle they use.
It also makes truffle feel less “expensive” and more accessible.
Restaurant usage
For restaurants, truffle hot pot can:
- attract new customers
- create a premium option without changing the whole menu
For this type of use, thin slicing truffle is important.
