Tips:
1. The quality requirements of lotus root: the lotus root body should be fat, crispy and tender, with a lot of moisture and sweet. At the same time, the lotus root body should be free from injury, rot, discoloration, no rust spots, no shrinkage, and constant joints;
2. An iron pot is not suitable for stewing lotus roots, otherwise the soup is easy to turn black. It is best to use a stew pot.
