LOTUS ROOT PASTE RECIPE - SIMPLE CHINESE FOOD
Surprisingly, Bawang Supermarket got a lot of fresh lotus roots. I remembered that I like to eat lotus root noodles. I had a whim today, thinking that if I just use lotus root to make a paste, isn’t it okay?
So, there was this bowl of lotus root paste, with rock sugar added, it was sweet, and it tasted like pears and yam. I used it for breakfast.
Unexpectedly, the starch content of lotus root is so high, one lotus root can be made into a big pot, and red dates, yam, etc. can be added when cooking. It tastes good and more nutritious.
Lotus root, slightly sweet and crunchy, is very nourishing and can be eaten raw or cooked. Fresh lotus root eaten raw can clear away heat and relieve troubles, quench thirst and relieve vomiting; cooked lotus root is sweet and warm in nature, can invigorate the spleen and appetite, nourish blood and invigorate the heart.
