Lotus Root is the tuber of the lotus plant. A whole lotus root usually has 3 to 5 tubers adjacent to each other, like sausage links. Each segment is about 10-20 centimeters (4-8 inches) in length and 5-10 centimeters (2-4 inches) in diameter. The root has a brownish yellow surface, a thin rind, and a greyish white color inside. It has a crispy and crunchy texture, similar to that of taro root. It has a refreshing and mild sweet flavor like that of chestnut, but is less watery and a bit more starchy
