The lotus root is native to India and has a long history of cultivation in China, with written records in the Spring and Autumn Period. There are two varieties of lotus root, namely seven-hole lotus root and nine-hole lotus root. The roots are thick and tender, the flesh is tender, crispy and sweet, and white and flawless. The lotus root contains starch, protein, asparagine, vitamin C and oxidase components. It also has a high sugar content. Eating fresh lotus root can clear away heat and relieve troubles, quench thirst and relieve vomiting; if the fresh lotus root is pressed to extract juice, its effect is even greater. Boiled lotus root is sweet and warm in nature, can invigorate the spleen and appetite, nourish blood and nourish the heart, so it mainly nourishes the five internal organs, has the effects of eliminating food, quenching thirst and promoting body fluid. The function of glutinous rice is to warm the spleen and stomach, so some people with spleen and stomach qi deficiency and frequent diarrhea can have a good therapeutic effect. It can also relieve symptoms such as night sweats, waist and abdomen bloating, shortness of breath and fatigue caused by qi deficiency.

2. Tools: 1 small funnel, 1 spoon, 1 chopstick, 1 bamboo stick, 15 toothpicks, and 1 cup. These tools can greatly speed up the efficiency of rice filling.

3. Soak the glutinous rice 3 hours in advance.

4. The soaked glutinous rice drains the water.

5. Wash the lotus root, scrape off the thin skin, and cut the thickest section at one end.

6. Put the lotus root in a tall cup (I found a plastic cup that I gave when I bought a drink, the lotus root is most suitable for putting it in).

7. Place a spoonful of rice on the small hole of the funnel and align it with the hole of the lotus root. Turn it into the funnel and gently poke it with chopsticks. The rice is poured in easily.

8. After filling one lotus root hole, you are changing to another hole. Even the small hole in the middle can be easily filled with rice by borrowing bamboo sticks.

9. The lotus root filled with rice and the cup are shaken a few times to see that the hole is missing rice and then fill it up. Cover another small section of lotus root that was cut off and fix it with a toothpick.
