●節目摘要:

你知道英國有一道具有時效性的美食嗎?經典的「英國週日烤肉 Sunday roast」包含了一塊烤肉,可以是牛、羊、豬或雞,淋上香濃的肉汁、配上烤馬鈴薯、各種蔬菜、以及最傳統的約克夏布丁,這樣的美味對英國人來說,是週日限定的喔!英國週日烤肉的傳統從 18 世紀開始,當時英國人週日會先去教堂做禮拜,之後和家人一同用餐,於是工人階級就會在前往教堂前先把肉塊放進烤爐,禮拜結束後烤肉也完成了,就有了代表性的週日烤肉。現在有許多老酒吧也會在週日提供烤肉餐點,木製的家具、暖烘烘的壁爐,精準地還原了傳統的氣氛!傳統之餘,在約克也有出現創意版本的英國週日烤肉,叫做「Yorky Pud」,巨大的約克夏布丁變成外皮,裡面包入烤肉、蔬菜和肉汁,簡直是英國版的烤肉捲餅!

●口說練習題:

Question: Why is the Sunday Roast served on Sundays only?

Answer:

During the Industrial Revolution, people would put the meat into the oven and then go to the church. After they came back, the meat would be ready, and the whole family would enjoy the meal together.

在工業時代,人們會在去教堂之前把肉放進烤爐,等到他們禮拜結束之後,就能跟家人們一起享用大餐。
