Lotus flower are blooming in summer of China now.

Lotus seeds are one of primary raw materials for making the popular sweet soup(Pinyin: Yin Er Lian Zi Geng银耳莲子羹) in China.

Surely, fresh lotus seeds can be eaten raw (peel off the green skin and take off the bitter plumule with a toothpick; you can also eat seeds with plumule, for the plumule is good for health too).

Stir-fried fresh lotus seeds taste nice too!
