Chinese Fondue

This wonderful fondue recipe came from my Mother-in-law. It is a rich, delicious broth that you can cook with any kind of meat or vegetable. We always have this for New Year's Eve with friends. Our favorite dipping sauces are ginger and mustard sauce, seafood cocktail and Bearnaise sauce. My husband proposed to me over this dinner!
