Lotus roots can grow quite long under water and have segments linked like sausages. Low in calories and an excellent source of fiber, they have long been enjoyed in Asia for numerous health benefits that include high vitamin and mineral contents.The lotus root is mild tasting with a pleasantly sweet flavor. It has a crunchy texture comparable to celery. When cooked for a long time, such as in a soup or stew, it becomes softer but still retains a tender bite like just-cooked potatoes. They are traditionally added to soups and stews or simply stir-fried, as well as braised in soy sauce. They can also be thinly sliced and added raw to salads. Another favorite way of enjoying them is deep-fried into chips. CNCVG24927 Lotus Roots (China) Vegetables China Chilled 0 500g 연근 (중국)
