FAQs about lotus root
Lotus root can be used as a substitute for other similar root-like vegetables, like turnips. Lotus is tasty in soups and stews and appears in a variety of Japanese recipes, such as Kinpira Renkon, or sauteed lotus root sliced thin into beautiful, round chips. Some more complex recipes to consider adding lotus root to are vegetable soup, beef stew, or even potato casserole. There are even recipes for vegan lotus root burgers.
When a lotus root is sliced, it almost looks like a flower, with a small center hole and then surrounding bigger holes around it. Some people may say it looks like an old rotary phone as well. Regardless of what you think it looks like, it can be a lovely plate decoration. People looking to make creative and artsy dishes may add a lotus root for bright, visually appealing garnish.
