Homemade white lotus paste filling

Overview

The color of the lotus paste stuffing is easily reminiscent of the scene of a clear autumn drizzle. In the autumn of the tenth year of Tianbao, the great poet Du Fu arrived in Beijing from Shu alone. The autumn rain was cold and he was bedridden. He looked out the window and thought that old friends would come to see him. Thinking like this, his lonely heart warmed a little. This is how lotus seed paste feels to people. Li Shangyin has a very clear and wonderful poem: Leave the withered lotus to listen to the sound of rain. Probably the lotus has withered, and the lotus seeds in the lotus pods can be harvested to make lotus paste filling. The light fragrance is refreshing, without too much sugar and oil. You can still smell the fragrance of lotus pods after the rain after one sip. The Mid-Autumn Festival is around the corner. We hope that the lotus seed filling recipe we presented can help you make delicious lotus seed filling mooncakes and enjoy the warm fragrance of autumn during the cold and rainy season.
