Cooking tips:1. I want to buy the thick and short lotus root. I usually buy it now. Now I pinch the middle one from the middle of three lotus roots. The hole of this lotus root must be clean. 2. Don't soak the glutinous rice in advance. The rice in the boiled glutinous rice lotus root will be firm. 3. When boiling the lotus root, don't add sugar first. Otherwise, the rice won't rot easily. Wait half an hour and then add sugar. 4. The lotus root should be washed temporarily. If not done temporarily, it's better to refrigerate it with a piece of soil. This kind of fresh-keeping effect is good. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
