Ethan: What's Taiwanese food like?
Laura: It's very different from the kind of Chinese food that you're used to eating in the West.
Ethan: I suppose there are different types of cooking due to all of the different ethnic groups in Taiwan.
Laura: Yes. The indigenous people, Hakka, and Taiwanese all have their own cuisine. They've probably influenced each other as well.
Ethan: Are there any special dishes?
Laura: Every city has its own special dishes, but if you mean throughout the whole island, there are lots. For example, beef noodles can be found everywhere.
Ethan: And what are these steamed dumplings that I keep hearing about?
Laura: They are dumplings stuffed with pork and green onion and they are very juicy inside. When you have a bite, the soup inside usually bursts out. So they're also called "soup
dumplings."
Ethan: What kinds of drinks are popular on the island?
Laura: Oolong tea is Taiwanese people's favorite tea. Tea is not just a drink, but also a part of the culture.
Ethan: Does Taiwan produce its own tea?
Laura: Taiwan probably produces some of the best quality tea in the world. The mountainous terrain and climate here are good for growing tea.
伊森:形容一下台灣料理吧?
蘿拉:和你在西方習慣吃的那種中國菜很不一樣喔。
伊森:我想台灣有這麼多不同的族群,一定也有不同的料理方式。
蘿拉:對啊,原住民、客家人和台灣人都有自己的料理,他們也會互相影響。
伊森:有什麼特別的料理嗎?
蘿拉:每個城市都有自己特有的飲食。不過如果你指的是普遍都有的話,也有很多喔,像牛肉麵就到處都吃得到。
伊森:那人家一直說的那個小籠包是什麼?
蘿拉:那是包了豬肉和青蔥的小包子,內餡非常多汁,一咬下去,裡面的湯汁就會流出來,所以又稱為「湯包」。
伊森:台灣人喜歡喝些什麼?
蘿拉:台灣人最愛喝烏龍茶了。茶已經不只是飲料,也是文化的一部份。
伊森:台灣本身有產茶嗎?
蘿拉:台灣茶的品質可稱得上全球數一數二的,這裡多山的地形和氣候很適合種茶。 |
