11.? Lotus root hairpin

Lotus root hairpin is also called lotus root ribbon, which was called lotus root whip, lotus root vegetable and silver seedling vegetable in ancient times. It is also known as lotus root heart vegetable, lotus root tip, lotus root belt, and lotus root seedling.

The root hairpin is a young rhizome of the lotus (Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn.), consisting of an internode and terminal bud at the tip of the rhizome.

The rootband is a homologous organ with the lotus root, and when the conditions are right, the rootband expands and becomes the root (so, to be precise, the root is an expanded rhizome).

Usually white, yellow, pinkish-yellow (space rosettes form a pink skin when organic matter is high, mainly yellow).

The best time to pick, is after the summer rains, along the "green stakes" sticking out of the water down to the roots in the silt, at the end of the two root seedlings connected to the thick one is this. The lower the pile, the more tender the root tips below.

The kind of white with a little light yellow, straight trunk, easy to break, the tip is still in the hairpin shape, do not diverge is the best.

The human history of eating lotus root hairpin

Hubei and Anhui people like to eat lotus root most.

In ancient times, it was customary to harvest lotus root ribbons. For example, "Lotus Root Vegetable" recorded in "Compendium of Materia Medica" is what is nowadays called Lotus Root Scallop.

Currently, there are two main sources of lotus root ribbons sold for consumption in the market, namely, seed lotus and root lotus, with seed lotus as the main source. When cultivating lotus root in Chizhou City of Anhui Province and Hubei Province, lotus root is usually planted once and planted for three consecutive years. From the second year onwards, due to the field plants are too dense, the harvesting of lotus root strips, in fact, play the role of seedling thinning.

Therefore, the sub-lotus root belt is a by-product of sub-lotus cultivation. There are also some farmers who utilize the lotus root (lotus root) to harvest lotus ribbons. The lotus root ribbons are thicker and crisper compared to the sub-lotus root ribbons.
