Lotus root glutinous rice balls

Overview

The glutinous rice balls are sticky and glutinous, especially delicious. Today I made a sweet lotus root glutinous rice ball. The lotus root is sweet and crispy, and when you take a bite, it is light and refreshing. The outer skin is sticky and glutinous. It is both a dish and a dessert. Lotus root contains starch, protein, asparagine, vitamin C and oxidase components, and is also high in sugar. Eating raw lotus root can clear away heat and relieve annoyance, quench thirst and stop vomiting; cooked lotus root can strengthen the spleen and appetite, replenish blood and heart, main tonify the five internal organs, and have the effects of digestion, quenching thirst and promoting fluid production.
