来自美国Denis,自称是长沙本地人,他给自己取了个中文名叫夏士理,人称老夏。最近,他专门为了尝一尝地道的湖南美食去逛了逛四方坪夜市。
DenisNurmela, from the United States, employed by Changsha University as English teacher. He claims to be a native of Changshaand named himself Xia Shili in Chinese. Recently ,Denis visitedSifangping Night Marketfor these famous Hunan typical snacks
还没天黑,小摊小贩旁的街道上就已经变得人山人海,这就是中国典型的烟火气。
Even before dark, the streets next to the street vendors are crowded, which is a typical hustle and bustle city in China.
Denis巧妙地靠着他“老熟人”的关系,略过长长的队伍,第一个吃上了热腾腾的生煎包。他还不忘解释道:“只是为了证明我有多么本地,绝不是嘴馋!”
Denis tactfullyrelies on the relationship of his "old acquaintance" to skip over the long queue and be the first to eat the hot fried bun. He doesn’t even forget to explain: "Just to prove how local I am, not greedy!".
美国本土是没有包子这种食物的。在英语中外观类似包子的食物,被称之为“Buns”,而“Buns”的中文意思是“圆面包”。
In the United States, thereis no such food as steamed stuffed bun (we also call it baozi).The foodthatlookslike baoziiscalled"bun" in English, but "bun"means small round bread in Chinese.
生煎也与包子不同,生煎通常是蓬松的,里面有肉馅,它是包子的一种,但比包子更为多汁,底部也更为焦脆。
The Pan-Fried Pork Bun, which we called "sheng jian bao", is also different from the baozi. "sheng jian bao"is usually fluffy, and with meat stuffing. It’s a kind of baozi, but more juicy and usually crispy at the bottom.
在吃生煎的时候,你可要尤为小心了!Denis初次品尝就因为咬了一大口生煎,使得汤汁如洪水般四溅出来。
When eating sheng jian bao, youshould be especiallycareful!Denis tried it for the first time, and the soup spilled like a flood as he took a big bite of it.
那么正确的吃法是什么呢?你只需要在生煎上咬一个小小的口子,把汤汁慢慢吸出来,再把整个生煎吃掉就可以了。
So what is the appropriate way to eat? All you have to do is take a small bite of the sheng jian bao, suck out the soup slowly, and then eat the whole sheng jian bao.
当然,作为长沙人,作为一个像Denis一样的“本地人”。如果你喜欢吃辣,也可以沾上点儿辣酱。
Certainly,as a Changsha person, as a "local"like Denis. You can also get some spicy sauceif you like spicy food.
Denis说,他的嘴足够大,无需咬一个小洞,就可以把一整个都直接塞进嘴里,避免汤汁溅出来。
Denis said that his mouth is big enough to put the whole sheng jian bao directly into his mouth without biting a small hole to prevent the soup from spilling.
那么你是会像Denis一样一口吃一个生煎,还是咬一小口慢慢品尝汤汁呢?
So, will you eat sheng jian baolike Denis, or will you take a small biteof it and thentaste the soupslowly ?
