“Native to Asia, Indian Lotus is an aquatic perennial known for its striking flowers. The national flower of India, it is revered as a symbol of purity, enlightenment, and rebirth in both Hindu and Buddhist traditions. In addition to its beauty, the entire Indian lotus plant is edible. The flower petals and stems can be stir-fried or added to salads and soups; the rhizomes can be used in soups, stir-fried, or processed into starch; and the seeds can be eaten raw, roasted, or ground into a paste for baking.
