Steps to make Lotus Root Dumplings (Clear Soup Version):
  1. Chop the shiitake mushrooms finely. If you are not a vegetarian, you can use 50 g of peeled and chopped shrimp instead.
  2. Peel the lotus root, cut into half lengthwise and soak in water with a little vinegar (about 1 teaspoon of vinegar with enough water to cover the lotus root) to get rid of the astringency.
  3. Grate the soaked lotus root and squeeze it out lightly to eliminate some of the moisture. Add the shiitake mushrooms or shrimp from Step 1 to the grated lotus root in a bowl.
  4. Add the seasoning ingredients to Step 3, and knead gently with your hands to bring everything together. Taste and adjust the seasonings (you can add a little sugar at this point.) If you are not a vegetarian, add 1/2 of an egg white to make the dumplings light and fluffy.
  5. When the flavor is to your taste, form the mixture into about ping-pong sized dumplings. I could make 8 to 9 dumplings with these ingredients.
  6. Wrap up each dumpling in a piece of plastic wrap. Twist the ends tightly.
  7. Microwave the wrapped dumplings from Step 6 for 2 minutes, then take off the plastic. Your chewy lotus root dumplings are done!
