1
Peel the lotus root and cut it into thin slices, then rinse to remove the lotus root starch.

3
Add water to the pot, then add white vinegar and salt. Once the water comes to a boil, add the lotus root slices for blanching. (When blanching, there should be more water than vegetables)
4
Cool down and drain the water.
