Jim Jum is the Isaan version of the hot pot. It’s served in a clay pot over charcoal.

The broth is normally pork or seafood based and you’re given a selection of ingredients to add to the boiling soup; Morning glory, cabbage, glass noodles, meat or seafood, and egg, are all popular additives to a pot of jim jum จิ้มจุ่ม.

Overall it’s a pretty healthy Thai food since it includes lots of vegetables!
