Scented Tea, Glutinous Rice and Honey Lotus Root

Overview

In the late autumn of 12 years ago, my husband came to Chengdu for my first birthday. I had dinner at a restaurant and one of the dishes was glutinous rice lotus root. After that time, I would make glutinous rice lotus root for my family every autumn, and now it has become one of my baby’s favorite dishes.
