Osmanthus rouge lotus root
Overview
I originally wanted to make sweet-scented osmanthus and lotus root, but when I saw that there was still half a barrel of red wine, it would look great using the red wine and pear method, so I decided to call it Rouge

Ingredients
Steps
-
Soak the glutinous rice a day in advance and make it for morning soaking in the evening. You can also peel the lotus roots and cut off the front end
-
Put the glutinous rice inside and use chopsticks to stuff it with medium force. Don’t stuff it too tightly
-
Cover your head and tie it tightly with toothpicks
-
Pour red wine into a casserole, add a handful of rock sugar and simmer for 1-1.5 hours. If you are in a hurry, use a pressure cooker for half an hour. The taste will not be much different
-
If the red wine has not covered the lotus roots, turn them over halfway through cooking to avoid uneven color
-
Take it out and slice it
-
Wouldn’t it look pretty if you drizzle it with osmanthus honey
