A forager’s heaven
The high mountains of Yunnan, known as the “Kingdom of Wild Mushrooms” in China, contains a bounty of over 800 varieties of edible wild mushrooms, thanks to the damp climate cultivated by monsoons.
Hot Pot Queen’s Wild Mushroom Chili Sauce is a málà powerhouse hailing from the Chinese mountains of Yunnan. Unlike your run-of-the-mill chili oil or crisp, this spicy, robust topping of thick, chewy mushroom swimming in flavorful oil stands out with its hearty texture. Crafted from a blend of shiitake and wild Boletus mushrooms, sourced from prime foraging spots in Yunnan, this sauce offers a slightly sweet undertone from fermented soybeans, earthy notes from multiple mushroom varieties and toasty hints of sesame. It's the quintessential málà “hot pot” experience without overwhelming heat, adding depth to noodles, rice, fish, roasted vegetables, dumplings and fried eggs with its umami burst. Or try it to enrich soups, stews and stir-fries. It even works mixed into a bowl of hot water to create a sensational soup base.
