Boshan tofu box
Boshan Tofu Box is a traditional specialty from Boshan District, Zibo, Shandong, and a classic of Lu (Shandong) cuisine. Tofu is cut into blocks, hollowed out, and filled with minced meat, then topped with a 'box lid,' steamed, and draped with sauce. Resembling an exquisite little box on the outside with savory filling hidden inside, it is a representative masterpiece of Boshan cuisine.
