Dalieba
Dalieba (Chinese: 大列巴; pinyin: Dà Liěba; Russian: Далеба; Dungan:Да леба) or Lieba is Chinese bread that is made to resemble Russian rye bread and is available in Northeast China.
Russian influence to Northeast China
Northeast China, at one time known as Manchuria, had considerable influence from Russian, as Russians came there to build and manage East Chinese Railway in the 1890s, to work in the leased territory of Lushun and Dalian in 1898-1904, and to occupy that area at the end of the Second World War and in its aftermath.
The Russian influence to the cuisine of Northeast China can be observed in Dalieba bread [1] and Hongchang sausage. [2]
Dalieba bread
Dalieba is Chinese bread that is made to resemble Russia's rye bread in theory, and is so named from Da which means "Big" in Chinese, and Хлеб which means "Bread" in Russian. It is made from wheat flour, instead of ryeflour. Its taste is somewhat sweet.
Dalieba is available in large cities of Northeast China, such as Harbin, Changchun, Shenyang and Dalian, as nostalgic food to some people. Dalieba made by Qiulin Group is considered "authentic", and is also shipped to other cities. [3]
