Pork Ribs and Lotus Root Soup

Pork Ribs and Lotus Root Soup

Overview

When I was in Hubei, every winter my mother would sit in a casserole on top of the briquette stove, stewing big-bone lotus roots in it. Drinking a bowl of it would be such a blessing! I miss that taste so much. I rarely go home now. Every time I go back, it’s neither cold nor hot, which is not the best time to drink pork ribs and lotus root soup! I happened to buy a section of lotus root yesterday, let’s try it for yourself! I used an electric casserole, put it in and stewed it on its own, and the finished product was great!
