About Chinese turnip cake
Chinese Turnip Cake, also known as "Lo Bak Go," is a savory dish originating from Cantonese cuisine, commonly served during dim sum or Lunar New Year celebrations. Made primarily from daikon radish (Chinese turnip), rice flour, and water, the mixture is typically flavored with diced ingredients such as dried shrimp, shiitake mushrooms, and Chinese sausage. Once steamed into a firm cake, it is pan-fried to give it a crispy exterior while maintaining a soft interior. This dish is a source of carbohydrates and fiber from the daikon radish, providing vitamins like C and folate. However, it can also be high in sodium due to the inclusion of preserved ingredients and seasoning. Additionally, the frying process increases its fat content, so health-conscious diners may consider enjoying smaller portions or opting for steamed preparations to reduce oil intake. A classic comfort food, it’s both delicious and satisfying in moderation.
