The lotus plants are used in a variety of dishes. The most commonly used parts of the lotus plant used in cooking are the roots and stems. Stems are great in salads, and the petals can be eaten raw, but it is advised that they be cooked first to avoid parasites.

The root has a slightly bitter flavor, but when peeled, a lot of the bitterness is removed.
