第25章 Italian Cuisine 意式美味(2)

意大利不同地区有各自的特色开胃品,意大利南部有各种海鲜特色和传统南方风味腌肉,而北部以各式腌肉、蘑菇为特色,尤其湖区的淡水鱼。不同地区干酪也各有特色。

Many compare antipasto to hors d'oeuvre,but antipasto is served at the table and signifies the official beginning of the Italian meal. It may also be referred to as a starter,or an entrée.

很多人把开胃菜称为主菜以外的食品,但它是意大利人正式用餐的第一道菜,即餐前点或头盘。

舌尖美食文化

Italian pizza may be widely known to have invented only the last decades of the 19th century,although some believe that it was the Greek who first made them,when a cook was summoned by his King and Queen to make a local specialty. He then made rounded bread with topping and colored it with Italian flag colors.He used Italian ingredients to make the colors particularly the tomato sauce for red,mozzarella cheese for white and basil leaves for green.The delicacy was named after the Queen Mergherita and was considered as the first Italian pizza.From that time on,Italian pizza has become the most favorite pizza around the world.

虽然有人认为比萨是由古希腊人首创的,但众所周知,意大利比萨是19世纪末创制的。当时的国王与王后邀请一位厨师来烹饪他的地方特色菜。他在圆面团上面洒配料,做成像意大利国旗的颜色。他用番茄酱来做红色部分,马苏里拉奶酪来做白色部分,罗勒叶来做绿色部分。这种佳肴美味以玛格丽塔王后的名字命名,被传为最初的意大利比萨。从那时起,意大利比萨变成为享誉世界的美食。

Today,making a pizza might be easily made,as many instant crust and topping are already available in the market. However,the true taste of Italian pizza is hard to duplicate.Only the best Italian pizza maker can give the consumer the true taste of a tasteful and delicious Italian pizza.

如今,做一份比萨也许很简单,因为许多即用面食和配料在市场都有出售。然而,纯正口味的意大利比萨是无法复制的。只有最出名的意大利比萨烹饪师才能制作最正宗的意大利比萨。
