Loh Bok Goh

Cultural Context

Loh Bok Goh, or Turnip Cake, is a traditional dish in Chinese cuisine, especially popular during Lunar New Year celebrations. It symbolizes prosperity and good fortune, as the radish is associated with wealth. This savory cake is made from grated radish mixed with rice flour and often includes ingredients like mushrooms and Chinese sausage. Today, it has gained popularity beyond China, with variations found in many Asian communities worldwide, served as a dim sum dish or during festive occasions.
