Thank goodness for my parents!! My dad gave me a book called "Japanese Hot Pots". My kids absolutely love hot pot cooking.
My son's birthday is coming up soon, and he wanted to invite his friends over for hot pot. With 9 people at the party, one pot won't be enough, so I called my mom and asked her to borrow some portable butane burners, and a few donabe (the cooking pots).
She lent me this beautiful cast iron donabe, so I took it for a test run last night, using the Hakata chicken hot pot recipe from the book my dad gave me. It was yummy and the donabe worked fairly well, though the shallow depth makes it more conducive to chicken that's pre-cooked. The rest of the ingredients cooked nicely though.
