【文化常识】
Fish and Chips
炸鱼薯条
Fish and chips, a hot dish of English origin, consist of battered fish, commonly
Atlantic cod or haddock, and deep-fried chips. It is a common take-away food in
England.
炸鱼薯条起源于英国,深受大众欢迎,主要食材包括由大西洋鳕鱼或黑线鳕做
成
的炸鱼和炸薯条。炸鱼薯条是英国比较常见的一种外带食品。
The dish became popular in wider circles in London and South East England in the
middle of the 19th century as a consequence of the rapid development of trawl fishing
in the North Sea, and the development of railways which connected the ports to major
industrial cities. Traditional frying uses beef dripping or lard; however, vegetable oils,
such as peanut oil (used because of its relatively high smoke point) now predominate.
In chip shops in the United Kingdom and Ireland, salt and vinegar is traditionally
sprinkled over fish and chips at the time it is served. A portion of mushy peas is a
popular side dish.
因为北海拖网捕鱼技术的发展,连接主要工业城市和港口之间铁路越来越发
达,这款快餐于19世纪中期在伦敦及英格兰的东南地区风靡一时。传统油炸做
法是使用牛油滴或猪油。然而,现在像花生油这些植物油(因为具有相对较高的
烟点)占据了主要地位。在英国和爱尔兰的炸鱼薯条店,做好的炸鱼薯条上面通
常会酒些盐和醋。豌豆泥则是一道十分受欢迎的配菜。
In the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa,
Fish and chips usually sell through independent restaurants and take-aways known as
fish and chip shops. These shops reach staggering 35, 000 in the 1930’s leveling to
around 11, 000 now. The record for the largest number of portions sold in one day by
an independent fish and chip shop is over 4,000.
在英国、爱尔兰、澳大利亚、加拿大、新西兰还有南非,通常有独立的餐厅出
售炸鱼薯条,或者有专供外带的炸鱼和薯条店。20世纪30年代,炸鱼和薯条店
达3.5万家,数量惊人,目前仍有1.1万家。有记录表明,一家独立的炸鱼和薯条
店一天最高销量能超过4000份。
