Xiaomaichang and Haizi areas in the east of Jianshui Old Town are large growers of lotus which tops others because it has nine holes naturally.
Locals like to stuff glutinous rice into the lotus roots and steam the mixture--and slice it for further deep frying in cooking oil. Tasting crisp, tender and fragrant, this dish is considered a signature delicacy of Jianshui.
