- Peel and cut lotus root into rounds approximately 1/8 inch thick. Cut large rounds in half. Place in a bowl of cool water to cover and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp. salt to prevent discoloration. Set aside till ready to use.
- Soak mushrooms in warm water to reconstitute. Drain, remove stems and slice in half.
- Drain lotus root.
- Place chicken broth into a stock pot with all remaining ingredients and bring to a near boil. Simmer up to 1 1/2 hrs, or possibly till pork is tender. If you like, separate pork from soup before serving. Serve pork separately with soy sauce on the side as a dip for the meat. Or possibly you can serve the soup with the meat in it.
- Top with sprigs of Chinese parsley and serve.
- Note: Lotus roots resemble links of potatoes. When cut, the pcs resemble snowflakes. When bitten into, the lotus root is a little fibrous.
