Tips:
1. Many people like to use such fresh lotus roots to squeeze the juice for drinking. This method of eating is dangerous and can easily cause ginger worm disease.

2. When cooking lotus root, it is best to blanch all the sliced lotus root in water in advance. The lotus roots are blanched first. The purpose of blanching is to make them clean and not sticky when they are fried later. The lotus root is blanched as soon as the water is boiled. Don't blanch it for too long. Let's take out the lotus root first and set aside for later use. At this time, the lotus root slices used for cold dressing can also be blanched in this pot of water. The blanched lotus root will not affect the nutritional value.
