Caidian Lotus Root Soup
The lotus root from Caidian District in Wuhan has a long history. During the reign of Emperor Guangzong of the Southern Song Dynasty, it was once presented as a tribute to the imperial court, which made Caidian lotus root famous. Known for its premium quality, delicious taste, and rich nutrition, it is deeply loved by people. Lotus root contains a variety of trace elements beneficial to the human body and has high medicinal value. It can be eaten either cooked or raw.
At the second Caidian Lotus Root Festival in Wuhan, Hubei Province, four summer lotus roots were auctioned off for an astonishing 88,000 yuan by a local enterprise. Though not necessarily the highest price nationwide, this bid is still jaw-dropping.
Braised pork rib lotus root soup is a Wuhan specialty and a top choice for hosting family and friends during holidays and celebrations.
