Tips:
Many people think that the soup is not milky because of the lotus root, and they will cut the lotus root into pieces and blanch it, which is a big mistake and too much. Because lotus root contains a lot of starch, it is not only fragrant when stewed directly with pork ribs, but also very milky white.
After the lotus root is peeled and cut into pieces, it should be immediately put into a casserole and simmered with the pork ribs to prevent oxidation and blackening. Salt must be put at the end, too early salt will cause protein to coagulate, and nutrients are not easy to be released.
