What is Lotus seed?
The lotus seed is a hard, round nut nestled within the lotus flower pod. Inside the shell lies a white embryo, surrounded by a starchy interior. Fresh lotus seeds have
a slightly bitter taste, but when dried, the bitterness mellows. Dried lotus seeds can be further processed into a fine powder for increased versatility.
