I am falling in love with eating 🌶🌶🌶 here in 湖南. Other than a liking for chilli, people here eat it to keep themselves warm during the cold winter season.

The 苗家酸菜鱼 is a specialty dish from 凤凰古镇, with 苗家族 being the main minority in the ancient town. A spicy sour broth with tender catfish slices, tomato, pickled Chinese cabbage (酸菜) and lots of dried chilies and peppercorns. Surely to leave you feeling warm and awake after this piping hotpot, though we might not be used to eating freshwater fish though, as they have many fishbones and really thick skin 😂. Ask for less spicy and they will change it into a more tangy tomato-based broth. One good thing about the hunan cuisine is that it isn’t salty surprisingly. Definitely a dish that I would crave for in cold weather!
