"Crystal sugar Xianglian" is a famous dish of Hunan beet. Since the Western Han Dynasty, white lotus has been used to pay tribute to Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, Xianglian is also called Gonglian. Fragrant lotus is mainly produced in the Dongting Lake area. Xiangtan is a famous production area. Huashi and zhonglupu produce the most in the city, and the quality is the best. There are red lotus and white lotus. Among them, white lotus is round and white, and the powder is waxy and fragrant, ranking first in the country. When excavating Mawangdui tomb in Changsha, Hunan, it was found that Hou had eaten lotus seeds. Zhang Ji, a poet of the Jin Dynasty, once sighed after tasting the new white lotus with "a clear heart and a small lotus fragrance", saying that "the mouth is tired and ridiculous, and this body wants to be old Hunan".The soup is clear, the lotus is white and red, the lotus seed powder is waxy, and the fragrance is pleasant. The white lotus floats on the clear soup like a pearl floating in the water. It is one of the famous Hunan dishes.
