  1. What is the difference between Longya lily bulb and regular lily bulb?

  Longya lily bulb slices are usually longer and more elegant in appearance. After cooking, they become soft, powdery, and delicate, making them suitable for desserts, soups, and gift-quality ingredient pairings. Regular lily bulb slices may vary more in size and are often used for basic daily soups.
