【舌尖上的旅行】法國菜頭盤不能少的蝸牛

⭐配杯白酒幻想自己置身巴黎街頭
⭐紅酒燉牛肉油封鴨可麗露要等我啊
#星期四食材

田螺清熱祛水腫
人生第一次聽到法國菜會吃蝸牛感到很震驚，因為小時候認知的蝸牛就是下雨天在地上緩緩爬行的那種，但如果叫它做田螺呢？辣炒田螺嘛，大家都不感到陌生，其實蝸牛就是螺的一種，受法國人青睞的蝸牛，都是專門養殖來食用的品種，千萬不要隨便在野外捕捉蝸牛烹煮食用。從中醫角度來看，田螺性寒，有清熱解暑、明目、利水止渴的功效，中式食法多配以薑、蔥、蒜、辣椒等屬性溫熱的配料同煮，以平衡螺肉的寒性。而法式煮法配上簡單的香草牛油，經高溫一焗，牛油香滲入田螺之中，閉上眼睛品嚐，暫時幻想自己正在法國旅行吧！

田螺 — 性寒，有清熱解暑、明目、利水止渴的作用，適合水腫、小便不通、痔瘡便血、風熱目赤腫痛者食用。由於性寒，脾虛便溏、胃寒疼痛、風寒感冒、月經期間、寒性痛經者不宜食用。

法式焗田螺
材料：新鮮田螺或罐頭田螺肉、無鹽牛油60克、巴馬臣芝士碎60克、蒜頭（磨蓉）4瓣、番茜葉（Parsley）（切碎）一把
做法：
1. 將無鹽牛油、巴馬臣芝士碎、蒜蓉、番茜碎搓勻成香草牛油。
2. 將適量香草牛油釀入田螺殼內，如沒有田螺殼，香草牛油鋪在田螺肉上。
3. 放入已預熱至攝氏180度的焗爐，焗約15分鐘即可。

River snail can clear heat and relieve water retention

When we first learned snails (escargot) are served in French cuisine, we must have been a bit shocked. Since we were young, the snails we knew are the ones crawling on the ground on rainy days. So why are they called river snails?

We should be quite familiar with river snail stir-fried with chili. Actually, the typical snail is a type of shelled gastropod, whereas the escargot is specifically cultivated for French cuisine. Please note that it is unsafe to consume snails from the wild. From the perspective of Chinese Medicine, river snail is cold in nature, can clear heat, brighten one’s vision, quench one’s thirst and has diuretic properties.

In Chinese cooking, river snails are often cooked with ingredients that are warm in nature, such as ginger, onion, garlic and chili, to balance out its coldness. As for French cuisine, chefs would normally prepare escargot with simple vanilla butter. Once baked at a high temperature, the fragrance of the butter would seep into the flesh. Try to close your eyes and enjoy the taste, imagine yourself travelling in France!

River snail – cold in nature, can clear heart, brighten one’s vision, quench one’s thirst and has diuretic properties, is suitable for individuals with symptoms such as water retention, urination, bleeding hemorrhoids, and swelling and pain of the eyes. Since it is cold in nature, it is not suitable for individuals with a weak spleen and loose stools, a cold stomach and those experiencing frequent stomachache; also not suitable for those who with a cold flu, going through period as well as cold-related menstrual pain.

Escargot Bourguignonne
Ingredients: 200g fresh escargots or 1 canned escargot, 60g butter, 60 parmesan cheese, 4 cloves of pounded garlic, parsley
Preparation:
1. Preheat oven to 180 Celsius degree
2. Mix butter, parmesan cheese, garlic and parsley into herb butter.
3. Put the herb butter in the escargot shells, or just directly on escagots.
4. Bake for 15 minutes.

[#台味甜蜜蜜 / The Sweet Taste of Taiwan] 老闆，來一碗滷肉飯！/ Taiwan in a bowl: Lu Rou Fan (English below)

說到法式甜點的 #台灣味，怎麼能不提萬華的 菓實日？

前幾年就為菓實日將台灣傳統文化融入法式甜點的創意心折，如果說巴黎有日式銅鑼燒店 Pâtisserie TOMO 作為日法甜點水乳交融之作的代表，（參見 #法式甜點學 p.156, 241, 336, 337），菓實日便似乎象徵著法式甜點真正能在台灣生根、與在地庶民文化結合開出的芳草奇卉。TOMO 以法式甜點技法重新詮釋日式甜點，外型融入了銅鑼燒與法式經典（如 Paris-Tokyo、檸檬塔、反轉蘋果塔、日本威士忌聖托佩塔等）、口味也兼有兩者之長；菓實日則不受限於單一類型糕點，代表作「紅龜」與「滷肉飯」大膽地用法式蛋糕（entremets）重新詮釋了他們心目中的台味與台灣精神。

數年前有幸品嚐過「紅龜」，一直對酒釀慕斯加紅豆餡既新奇又傳統的搭配念念不忘。這次趁著留在台灣的時間，又去拜訪了他們幾次，還剛好遇到他們在籌備線上課程期間，有幸飽覽饅頭主廚的精彩作品，並品嚐了這碗讓我一直好奇不已的「滷肉飯」。「滷肉飯」不僅有著法式甜點繁複多層的特質，還非常奇妙地揉合了台味無比的混搭創意：以蜜漬地瓜丁加焦糖醬模擬了滷肉飯的靈魂元素——滷肉與滷汁、米香白巧克力薄殼包裹著八角慕斯則成了晶瑩的米飯，最妙的是一匙舀起，還會意外地發現碗底的驚喜：肉鬆加自製酥菠蘿（奶酥、crumble）和生乳酪蛋糕體，最上方點上一片鮮綠的香菜，就變成了一碗技法完全是法式、但風味組合與精神卻100%台味的滷肉飯造型甜點。

前兩個禮拜我提到「是否有 #台灣神髓？」、「什麼是台灣神髓？」、「台灣神髓是否能被表現出來、又該怎麼表現？」，而菓實日的「滷肉飯」幾乎是不偏不倚地回答了這些問題。所有曾經必須對外國友人介紹台灣飲食的朋友，都會知道「台灣味」、「台菜」非常難以定義與畫出界線，因為台灣就是一個充滿了移民的島嶼、乘載了各種不同文化混雜的歷史，尋求「純粹的」台味很難不落入徒勞無功的下場。事實上台灣的活力，確實也來自於那種能將不同文化輕鬆且毫不做作地混搭、交融的自在。菓實日的「滷肉飯」恰恰體現了這種看似大膽奔放、但成果無比協調的餘裕。多達八層，且有香菜、地瓜、八角、肉鬆等台灣常見的料理元素，被妥貼地收納在這個「法式蛋糕」中。或許你無法一口氣分辨出每一種元素與層次，但它們卻如此完滿、歡欣地在嘴裡融合在一起，讓人不由得脫口而出「好吃」！哎呀，這不正是「台灣」和「台灣神髓」嗎？

老闆，再來一碗啦！

📌 菓實日目前正在休息準備下一步計畫中，門市並未對外營業。饅頭主廚與先生韞豐正在忙著籌備他們的線上課程，也有一些與桃園 雙口呂 Siang kháu Lū 文化廚房合作的實體教學。接下來會有小量對外販售的計畫，關心他們動態的朋友記得追蹤菓實日的粉絲頁；好奇這些台味甜點如何設計、製作，也可以了解他們傾囊相授的線上課程！https://tinyurl.com/y8cchelc

*****
Kajitsu, a hidden treasure in Taipei’s Wanhua district, is a little French pastry shop that makes Taiwan-inspired pastries. Chef Mantou transforms traditional festive pastry “Âng-ku-kóe” and “Lu Rou Fan”, Taiwan’s national dish, into French entremets. It is not unusual that food adapts to local tastes when it travel overseas. It takes place in different forms. Take French pastries for instance, adding local ingredients in the classics is one way. For example, Japanese chefs may use yuzu to replace lemon when making their tarte au citron. Employing foreign skills to revisit or transform one’s traditions is another. Pâtisserie TOMO in Paris that combines Dorayaki and classic French pastries serves one of the best examples. In Taiwan, Kajitsu is another interesting case.

“Âng-ku-kóe”, “red tortoise cake”, used to be the most popular local festive pastry in old times. It’s shaped as a turtle and coloured in red (sometimes in green) since turtles are a symbol of longevity, fortune, and fame in Taiwan. Red is also the lucky color here. In Kajitsu, chef Mantou tries to transform this traditional delight into a French entremets. She keeps the sweet red bean paste in the filling and matches it with sweet rice wine mousse to modernise the traditional taste. “Lu Rou Fan”, braised pork rice, one of the most beloved dishes that can be seen everywhere in Taiwan, is the chef’s another brilliant creation. Mantou takes sweet potato confit and caramel sauce to create a “trompe l’œil” of the famed braised pork and its sauce, star anise mousse hints the indispensable spice during the braising, the rice crispy and white chocolate coating shape the bowl of rice, and the unusual combination of pork floss and cheesecake gives a little surprise beneath. A refreshing coriander leave on top takes you to the humid summer of Taiwan instantly. Lots of seemingly conflicting ingredients are grouped together, resulting in, however, an incredible harmony. It is a fascinating dessert that can only be created by a Taiwanese pastry chef as it parallels Taiwan’s history and reflects its source of energy: immigrants with diverse origins, cultures and values cohabit and learn to evolve together.

As Kajitsu’s pastries are deeply rooted in the everyday life of Taiwan, there are also other intriguing creations such as petits fours with motifs of old tiles and the sweet “Doom crackers” inspired by the role of the god ruling the Qing Shan Temple in Wanhua district.

🍞美國生活用語：食物篇又來了──與麵包🥖 bread有關的諺語

還記得乳製品的英文怎麼說嗎😏 可以在文章裡面找找看喔！

1⃣ Bread is the staff of life.
2⃣ Man does not live by bread alone.
3⃣ earn one’s daily bread
4⃣ take the bread out of sb.’s mouth
5⃣ break bread

--

After covering dairy products, it’s time to move on to another kind of food—bread. Bread has long been a staple of the Western diet since ancient times, so of course it has made its way into all kinds of proverbs and idioms.
聊完乳製品之後，我們來聊聊另一種食品：麵包。自古以來，麵包一直是西方飲食不可或缺的主食，所以跟麵包相關的諺語與生活用語想必也不少。

Let’s start with a proverb that has its origins in the Bible: 1⃣ Bread is the staff of life. If you’re picturing someone using a baguette as a staff to walk with, it may give you a sense of the proverb’s meaning: bread is what supports us in our lives, or provides us with sustenance. But bread here is also a symbol of all food, so the real meaning is that one must eat in order to survive. Ex: I know you’re busy, but don’t forget to eat—bread is the staff of life.
先來看一個源自《聖經》的諺語：Bread is the staff of life.（麵包是生命的拐杖。）想像一下用法國麵包當做拐杖走路的樣子，大概就能理解這句諺語的意思：麵包是支持生活的必需品，供給我們營養。不過麵包在這裡也是象徵所有食物之意，所以真正的意思是「民以食為天」。如：I know you’re busy, but don’t forget to eat—bread is the staff of life.（我知道你很忙，但別忘了吃飯啊，民以食為天。）

Another proverb with Biblical origins: 2⃣Man does not live by bread alone. Here, bread means “food and shelter.” So the proverb means that beyond their physical needs, people also need mental or spiritual sustenance. Ex: He may be wealthy, but man does not live by bread alone.
另一個諺語也是出自《聖經》：Man does not live by bread alone.（人活著不只是為了溫飽。）bread在這句話中指的是「食物與住所」。因此，這個諺語要人們超越生理需求、滋養心靈。如：He may be wealthy, but man does not live by bread alone.（他或許很富有，但是人活著不是只為了溫飽。）

Since bread is a symbol for sustenance, there are also idioms like 3⃣ “earn one’s daily bread,” which means “make a living.” Ex: The man earns his daily bread as a taxi driver. 4⃣ And “take the bread out of sb.’s mouth” means to deprive them of their means of living. Ex: Lowering wages would be taking the bread out of workers’ mouths.
因為麵包是食物的象徵，所以也有如earn one’s daily bread這樣的片語，指「維持生計」。如：The man earns his daily bread as a taxi driver.（這個男人當計程車司機維持生計。）而take the bread out of sb.’s mouth則是指「搶某人飯碗」，如：Lowering wages would be taking the bread out of workers’ mouths.（減薪對員工而言是剝奪了他們的飯碗。）

5⃣ And finally there’s “break bread.” Can you guess what it means? It means to have a meal. In the old days, a family would share a loaf of bread at each meal, and everyone would break off pieces to eat. Ex: It’s been a long time since I broke bread with Michael.
最後來看看break bread這個短語。猜猜看，這是什麼意思？答案是「吃飯」。古時候的家庭，每餐都有一條麵包分給全家人，每個人會掰一塊麵包來吃。如：It’s been a long time since I broke bread with Michael.（我已經很久沒跟麥可吃頓飯了。）
