Lotus root powder and osmanthus sugar cake

Lotus root powder and osmanthus sugar cake

Overview

I haven’t posted this recipe until now because I have been looking for another fermented version of the recipe and wanted to try it. Later, after checking the old recipe, it really didn’t exist. I don’t know if this is the specialty dim sum of Meizhuang in "The Legend of Zhen Huan". However, the faint scent of osmanthus is a unique souvenir of this unique woman in my heart!
