I’m definitely going to give this beautiful recipe a try, though.

The “holes” of the lotus root are stuffed with glutinous rice and then steamed and covered with some aromatic flower-infused syrup. OMG, it’s the best thing EVER!

I haven’t eaten it in a long time, my parents used to make me eat it when I was a kid, so I’m going by guessing and memory. It was bland; sometimes it was boiled in a soup and then it’d be chalky and just mushy; it never lived up to what I hoped it’d taste like just by looking at it. I guess also I associated it with a lot of things- the soup was made when I was sick, to make me better, or these things were served at Chinese banquets that I always hated because it meant I’d have to eat Chinese food. (I look forward to Chinese banquets for the same reason now.)

Everything you photograph looks absolutely delicious. This is, of course, no exception.

I have a recipe for pork-stuffed lotus root that I mean to try out. And I’ve seen photos of sweet, honey-soaked lotus root stuffed with sweet glutinous rice. I want to reverse engineer and duplicate that at some point, too.

Yvo – I know what you mean! I don’t want autumn, but I want those intense colors. I’m so sick of wintery grey. I’m curious, though – what don’t you like about lotus root?

Tanna – Hm, this is starting to feel like a pattern. Sounds like you’re not much of a fan of lotus root, either. Why not?

Sue – Let me know how it goes when you try it!

It looks delicious and I am very pleased to hear that it has a sweet and sour taste, which is one of my favourite flavors as well.
I should try this. Thanks!
