Lotus Leaf

Lotus leaf bread is a Chinese steamed bread. Semi-circular and flat, the loaves are similar in design to a clamshell. They have a horizontal fold that, when opened, gives the appearance that it has been sliced. Lines or patterns may be added to increase the resemblance to a lotus leaf. If the lotus leaf bread is stuffed with fillings, it is referred to as a lotus leaf bun. The bread is traditionally eaten with rich meat dishes such as roast duck or pork belly. The lotus leaf bread is best known outside China as the bread used in the Fujianese dish gua bao.
