I have introduced the many benefits of eating 藠 tou before, and attached a way of eating cold salad (link here: http://home.meishichina.com/recipe-63397.html)
Now let’s introduce another way to soak and eat. After marinating the lotus head, it is crystal clear and translucent, the epidermis, roots and meridians are distinct, and the small ones are very beautiful, so I thought of the "stage name" of "Bihuajiao"~ Haha

In some places, they like to use a method similar to soaking garlic. The added old vinegar gives a darker color. I personally prefer to use white vinegar. It tastes sweet and sour in the mouth, and has a strong spicy aroma. It is especially appetizing with body fluid. I ice it in the refrigerator. I will serve a few when I want to eat. Wow~~~~ My saliva is dripping~~~

If you want to eat something with spicy flavor, just use the cold dressing method before. If you like the sweet and sour taste, just learn the practice of crystal scallops~

I still have to talk about it again: scallops should not be eaten with beef."

Ingredients

1. Remove the roots and leaves of fresh lotus roots, wash and drain. (The scallops in my hometown are of this slender shape, and in some places they are fatter and rounder.)

2. The drained lotus head is marinated in salt for several hours and placed in a sealed place until the epidermis becomes slightly wrinkled. I marinated it for an afternoon and an evening. When I opened the sealed box the next day, a lot of juice was released from the head. You can put a little more salt.

3. When I opened the lid again, not only a lot of juice came out, but the spicy scent of the head was already very strong. Pick out the lotus head and put it in a sealed bottle.

4. Add white vinegar and sugar to the separated juice and mix thoroughly.

5. Pour the mixed juice into the jar that was filled with the scallops before. Then seal and refrigerate for 3-5 days, ready to eat!

6. The soaked scallops have a transparent and crystal-clear skin, a rich taste, with a little bit of sweet and sour scent, which is crispy and refreshing when you bite them in your mouth.
