Osmanthus glutinous rice and lotus root, also known as honey glutinous rice and lotus root, is one of the traditional famous spots in Jiangnan area. Glutinous rice is poured into lotus root and is carefully prepared with sweet-scented osmanthus sauce and red dates. It is a unique characteristic of traditional dishes in Jiangnan area. Chinese desserts are well-known for their sweetness, crispness and strong fragrance of osmanthus. The sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice and lotus root are boiled over a slow fire. The aroma of glutinous rice and the sweetness of red dates are boiled on a low fire and penetrated into the lotus root. Finally, the sweet osmanthus is topped with sweet-scented osmanthus. Cooking such a New Year's Eve dinner will surely surprise the audience. I'm afraid that the glutinous rice and lotus root can't be controlled in a low heat, so I use an electric pressure cooker. "
