About Cold lotus root

Cold Lotus Root is a refreshing and nutritious dish commonly found in Chinese cuisine. Made from thinly sliced lotus root, this dish is typically seasoned with a light mix of vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, chili, and green onions. Lotus root is rich in dietary fiber, vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants, making it beneficial for digestion, immune support, and heart health. Its crispy texture and mildly sweet taste make it a satisfying ingredient in salads and cold appetizers. Served chilled, it’s ideal for balancing heavier meals or as a healthy snack. While low in calories and fat, the dish may contain significant sodium depending on its preparation, so moderation is key. Cold Lotus Root showcases the versatility of this unique root vegetable, which has been cherished in East Asian cooking for generations both for its flavor and its nourishing qualities.
