About: Lotus leaf bread

An Entity of Type: Food, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Lotus leaf bread (Chinese: 荷叶饼; pinyin: hé yè bǐng) is a Chinese steamed bread that is semi-circular and flat in form, with a horizontal fold that, when opened, gives the appearance that it has been sliced. It is a traditional accompaniment to dishes such as fen zheng rou or roast duck. The bland white dough acts as a counterfoil to the intense flavors and textures of rich, meaty dishes such as a slow-cooked pork belly. Lines or patterns may be added to make it resemble a lotus leaf more. When the bread is stuffed, it is referred to as a lotus leaf bun (Chinese: 荷叶包; pinyin: hé yè bāo). Lotus leaf bread is most well known outside of China as the bread that is used in the Fujianese and Taiwanese dish gua bao.
