Coq au vin is a French dish of chicken braised with wine,lardons,mushrooms and optionally garlic. While the wine used is typically Burgundy,many regions of France have variants of coq au vin using the local wine,such as coq au vin jaune(Jura),coq au Riesling(Alsace),coq au pourpre or coq au violet(Beaujolais nouveau),coq au Champagne,etc.

红酒焖鸡是一道法国菜,鸡肉与红酒、腊肉、蘑菇,还有大蒜等一起烹制。红酒一般用法国勃艮第红酒。法国各地区的红酒焖鸡也用当地红酒来烹制,比如法国汝拉地区的黄葡萄酒焖鸡、法国阿尔萨斯地区的雷司令酒焖鸡、法国博若莱新葡萄酒焖鸡、香槟酒焖鸡等等。

Coq au vin was created as a delicious way to tenderize a tough,old bird in poor households. Chicken stewed in wine is a wonderful,hearty meal that needs no more than a baguette and good wine to becomplete.

红酒焖鸡以特殊的方式炖出鲜嫩的柴鸡肉,味道鲜美、浓厚,食用的时候,无需长棍面包或好酒搭配。

This recipe is prepared country-style,because the stewing vegetables are not removed upon serving,and the bacon,pearl onions,and mushrooms are partially cooked right along with the chicken.

这道菜以乡村传统烹饪法制作,蔬菜铺在上层,培根、小洋葱和蘑菇与鸡肉在下层炖制而成。

Conversation 1

Susan:Welcome to my house,Amy.

Amy:Thank you very much for inviting me.

Susan:I recommend to you a kind of authentic French soup,French onion soup. Please take a sip of it.

Amy:OK. Mmm,yummy!What's with this soup?

Susan:Well,French onion soup is a type of soup usually based on meat stock,and often served gratinéed with croutons and cheese on top.

Amy:How do you cook it?

Susan:It's quite simple. First,sauté the onions in the olive oil in a large saucepan,slowly cook and caramelise the onions with sugar and garlic and sauté.Then add the stock,vermouth or wine,bay leaf and thyme.Simmer them until the flavors are well blended,about 30 minutes.Finally,cover with the toast and sprinkle with cheese.Put into the broiler for 10 minutes until the cheese bubbles and is slightly browned.Serve immediately.

Amy:What's the key to the fantastic taste?

Susan:The key to a great French onion soup is starting with good stock. Another important element is the proper caramelization of the onions.The browning,or caramelizing,of the onions brings out the sweetness in them.

Amy:OK,I see. Thank you.

对话1:

苏珊:欢迎到我家来,艾米!

艾米:谢谢您的邀请!

苏珊:我向你推荐一道正宗法国汤……法式洋葱汤。请你先尝一口。

艾米:好的。嗯,味道美极了!这汤里有什么?

苏珊:嗯,法式洋葱汤是一种高汤,上面还有面包片或奶酪等。

艾米:您是怎么做这道菜的呢?

苏珊:这道菜烹饪很简单的。首先,用橄榄油在炖锅里慢慢煎洋葱,加点糖、大蒜和酱油,让洋葱变得有点焦红。然后加入肉汤、苦艾酒或其他酒、月桂叶和百里香。煨炖30分钟,让它们的味道融合一起。最后,在汤的上面放一块吐司面包片或一块奶酪。放入烤箱里烤10分钟,让奶酪冒泡或者变棕黄色,就可以吃了。

艾米:做出这种美妙味道的关键是什么?

苏珊:上等法式洋葱汤的关键是要有好的肉汤,另一个关键因素是洋葱焦化得好。洋葱变焦的过程中也焖出了甜甜的味道。

艾米:好的,明白了。谢谢您!

苏珊:这是我的荣幸。
