Sweet-scented osmanthus sugar lotus root

Sweet-scented osmanthus sugar lotus root raw materials: 2 kg of old lotus root can generally put about 300 grams of glutinous rice, 10 grams of edible alkali, 100 grams of soft sugar, and preferably 10 grams of sweet-scented osmanthus. Method: After cleaning the lotus root, cut off the root and tender head with a knife, cut off the surface roots of the lotus root node, and cut it off at the thicker end about 3 cm away from the node head, leaving it as a lotus root cover. After washing the glutinous rice, drain the water, pour it into the hole of the lotus root, press it with chopsticks while pouring, so that the rice can be filled firmly, cover the lotus root cover after filling it, and fix the lotus root cover with a bamboo skewer (toothpick is also acceptable) so that it is not easy to fall off. Put the lotus root in a pot, add clear water to submerge the lotus root, add edible alkali, set fire to cook until it is cooked thoroughly, take out the lotus root, drain the water, put it in a container and put it in a refrigerator to cool. Take out the lotus root, cut it into pieces, put it into a basin or dish, sprinkle with soft sugar and sweet osmanthus, and serve it. Key points: the lotus root should be made of thick and large holes, so that the effect is good.
