And yes we use raw egg (both the yolk and the white), some soy sauce and chili sauce. For crab, I simplify it even more. Just use red vinegar for dipping sauce. *drool*
Edit: and we don't even use a special range. We have an old school deep fryer that we just fill with water. It's great because it's electric rather than propane powered.

My house doesn't use an actual broth either. This thread has led to my demands of going to the Hot Pot buffet at the Cultural Centre before the Flames game Tuesday.
