海外文化:去了英國,不可錯過的10道有趣的美食

I knew that British food had a somewhat dubious reputation abroad but always thought it was a bit of a joke. Then I mentioned to someone that my favorite food is boiled bacon, meaning a gammon joint, and they refused to believe that we really do boil meat. Nothing beats a few slices of boiled bacon, served with English mustard, in a warm buttered roll. So in defense of Britain’s food, here is a list, in no particular order, of some British dishes which are definitely worth a try if you ever come across them.

我知道，英國食品的名聲是說不清道不明的，所以對外人來說，它一直就是一個笑話。接下來，我提到的一些食物中，有我最喜歡的食物，它的名字叫做煮臘肉，這是一道十分香的菜，他們不相信，我們會熬肉。沒有什么能夠比煮臘肉搭配英國芥末以及熱熱的奶油卷，更能吸引我的啦。所以為了給英國食品正名，我在這里列個表，沒有先后排名，這些食品絕對值得你嘗一嘗，哪怕是你偶遇到這些英式菜肴。

1. Bakewell Tart 貝克韋蛋撻

The Bakewell tart is a shortcrust pastry filled with jam and almond sponge (frangipane). The result is the perfect accompaniment to a cup of tea. The tart originates from the town of Bakewell. Local legend has it that the Bakewell tart (or pudding, as it is known in Bakewell) was created when a cook misunderstood her mistress’ instructions and layered frangipane on a simple jam tart. Whatever the truth the tart has been popular since at least the early 19th century.

貝克韋爾蛋撻是一種油酥松餅果醬夾心糕點，它有著杏仁奶油的香味，像海綿一樣酥脆。它的完美搭配是一杯茶。它源自貝克韋爾小鎮。相傳那時的貝克韋爾蛋撻（或布丁，因為它是在貝克韋爾），是因為一個廚師誤解她女主人的指示，對杏仁奶油蛋糕進行分層，結果做成了一個簡單的果醬蛋撻。不管這個傳說是真是假，這種蛋撻已早在第十九世紀流行。
