'''Shandong Food''' (also called '''Lu cuisine'''; Chinese: 鲁菜; pinyin: Lǔcài) is one of the [[Chinese Food Map|Eight Great Cuisines of China]] and a foundation of much northern Chinese cooking. Centered on Shandong Province along the Yellow Sea, it emphasizes fresh seafood, clear and milky soups, precise knife work, and savory rather than heavily spicy flavors.

== Introduction ==

As a coastal and agricultural region, Shandong supplies wheat, vegetables, poultry, and abundant seafood. Historically Lu cuisine influenced imperial and Beijing court cooking. Dishes often highlight the natural taste of ingredients through braising, quick-frying, and carefully seasoned broths.

== Characteristics ==

* Fresh seafood and inland meats prepared with restraint
* Clear soups and rich "milk" soups
* Salty-savory profiles with mild sweetness; less chili-forward than Sichuan styles
* Strong tradition of banquet and banquet-style presentation

== Famous dishes ==

Representative Shandong specialties include sweet-and-sour carp (糖醋鲤鱼), braised sea cucumber with scallion, Dezhou braised chicken (德州扒鸡), and various seafood soups and quick-fried shellfish. Many northern noodle and dumpling habits also overlap with Shandong home cooking.
