節目音樂:autumn in New York by Frank Sinatra
Autumn還是Fall?
fall=autumn. It's what Americans say: fall就是autumn, 但是是美語的說法
比如:
Fall is my favorite seaon of the year: 秋天是我最愛的季節
Fall sale: 秋季打折
Fall fashion: 秋季時尚
Seasonal fall food: fruit, vegetable, desserts, drinks: 今天聊聊秋季當季食物:水果、蔬菜、甜點、飲料
#1. Citrus: 柑橘類植物
Pomelo 柚子
Grape fruit 西柚
Mandarin oranges 橘子
We wanted to talk about fall foods because we were eating pomelo in the office the other day. 我們之所以會討論秋天的食物,是因為那天我們在辦公室吃柚子。
We called Mandarin oranges "cuties":中國的橘子也叫「cuties"小可愛
Peelable: 皮容易剝
You must be salivating:聊到這些,非常生津
#2. Persimmon 柿子
Persimmon: 柿子
Unripe persimmons taste dry:如果柿子沒熟,吃起來就很澀
Ripe: 熟的
Ripen: 放熟
These words can also describe avocado: 這些詞也能形容牛油果
There is another kind of persimmon. When it's crunch or crisp, you can eat it. 還有一種柿子。脆脆硬硬的,也可以吃。
In grocery stores, you can find apple crisps or veggie crisps. 在超市裡,你就可以看到很多蘋果脆、蔬菜脆這樣的零食。
I used to think they're very healthy. Actually they're NOT. 我以前以為這些東西很健康,其實一點兒不!
Lots of marketing there. 都是營銷手段啊!
#3. Dates/jujube棗子
Dates: 棗子
Jujube: 冬棗
Diana hasn't seen fresh dates in the states yet. Diana在美國沒見過新鮮的棗子。
There is a very popular British dessert: sticky date pudding. 有個挺流行的英式點心就是棗子做的:幹棗布丁(看起來挺像棗糕的)
#4. Chestnuts 慄子
You can buy fresh chestnuts or roasted chestnuts in America. 在美國,你可以買到新鮮的慄子或者糖炒慄子。
In fall, you can smell the aroma in the air in Shanghai. 在上海的秋天,你可以在空氣中聞到這種香味。
除了糖炒慄子的香味,上海的秋天還有一種不可錯過的味道:
osmanthus 桂花
I love walking on the street and smelling osmanthus. 我真愛在路上隨便走走,聞聞桂花的香味。
It smells like candy and very sweet. 桂花聞起來像糖果一樣,非常香甜。
Jenny hasn't seen osmanthus in North America. Maybe they just don't grow there. Jenny在北美沒見過桂花,可能它們就不生長在那裡。
#5. Candy hawthorn 冰糖葫蘆
It's Diana's favorite! 冰糖葫蘆是Diana的最愛。
Fresh hawthorn is not common in America, either. 新鮮山楂在美國也不常見。
But there is similar food there: candied apple/toffee apple/caramel apple. 不過美國也有相似的食物:冰糖蘋果、太妃蘋果、焦糖蘋果
They make a very healthy fruit into something that's absolute bad for you. But it tastes good. 他們把非常健康的水果加工成了對你身體不好的食物。但是吃起來真是不錯。
Once a while, it should be OK. 偶爾吃一次,應該還好。
I've personally never eaten one, but I've always been tempted. 我自己從來沒吃過,不過它總是誘惑著我。
美國秋天好吃的
#1. Pumpkin 南瓜
Pumpkin spiced everything when it's fall. 當秋天到來的時候,什麼東西都是南瓜味的。
Pumpkin spiced latte, pumpkin pie, pumpkin milk shake...南瓜拿鐵,南瓜派,南瓜奶昔……
Pumpkin is popular from Halloween to Thanksgiving. 南瓜會從萬聖節流行到感恩節。
節日限定:
Halloween: jack o lantern 萬聖節是南瓜燈
Thanksgiving: pumpkin pie 感恩節是南瓜派
這裡的"spiced" 不是辣的,而是指用香料調過味的。
#2. Spice 各種香料
cinnamon 肉桂
nutmeg 豆蔻
ginger 生薑
It makes you feel warm inside. 這些香料讓你感覺暖暖的。
所以聖誕節的時候,一定要有:
ginger bread cookies 薑餅
ginger bread man/house 薑餅人、薑餅屋
這一點和中醫理論也不謀而合呢,冬天就得吃點暖暖的東西。
#3. sweet potato 紅薯
Americans like roasted sweet potatoes. 美國人也喜歡烤紅薯。
I don't think it's the most hygienic. It depends on the huge can. 我覺得不太衛生。這取決於那個烤紅薯的筒幹不乾淨。
不過別怕:
You can microwave it. 你可以用微波爐烤紅薯。
You put the butter and you cut the sweet potato. 你把黃油放在切好的紅薯上。
Butter melts. It tastes so good. 黃油會化掉,吃起來非常香。
But it puts on a lot of weight. 不過這樣會很增肥。
最後來只大閘蟹
Alghough nowadays, you can find these foods anytime, seasonal food always tastes the best. 雖然現在好像什麼時候都可以吃到這些食物,不過當季的食物永遠是最好吃的!
