Today I am making a vegetable salad with aspic.  It's not a complicated dish but it does take time  

今天我做的是一道蔬菜沙拉加蘆筍。 這不是一道複雜的菜，但它確實需要時間。

and needs an eye for detail. It'll do nicely  for a summer luncheon dish for a ladies' lunch.

這需要對細節的關注。它可以很好地作為女士午餐的夏季午宴菜餚。

For this recipe, you will need...

對於這個食譜，你將需要...

I'm going to start with the vegetables. I  have potato, carrots, celery, green beans  

我打算從蔬菜開始。我有洋芋、胡蘿蔔、芹菜、青豆

and cauliflower. Mary-Ann has neatly and  precisely cut the vegetables into slices  

和花椰菜。瑪麗-安將蔬菜整齊而準確地切成片狀

and small shapes. It's important to keep them  consistent so that each mouthful is just right.  

和小的形狀。重要的是保持它們的一致性，以便每一口都恰到好處。

You could use boiled vegetables from dinner so  long as they are still presentable. These I've  

你可以使用晚餐中的煮熟的蔬菜，只要它們還能看得過去。這些我已經

specially blanched. You don't want to boil them  for too long otherwise they'll fall to pieces.  

特別是焯過水的。你不想把它們煮得太長，否則它們會摔得粉碎。

I like to keep them all separate like this  so that my salad will be nice and balanced.  

我喜歡像這樣把它們分開，這樣我的沙拉就會很均衡。

But first I'm going to take out some of these  florets and some of the carrots for later.

但我首先要拿出一些小花和一些胡蘿蔔備用。

Now, for my mayonnaise, I have two egg yolks  and I'm going to add a little mustard and salt.  

現在，對於我的蛋黃醬，我有兩個蛋黃，我將添加一點芥末和鹽。

Be generous with the salt. After all,  'salad' comes from 'sal' which is salt.

要慷慨地使用鹽。畢竟，"沙拉 "來自 "sal"，就是鹽。

Mayonnaise takes time and patience to make. You  need to add the salad oil a little drop at a time.

蛋黃醬需要時間和耐心來製作。你需要每次加入一滴沙拉油。

I do like mayonnaise. Not just for  salads but also as an accompaniment.  

我確實喜歡蛋黃醬。不僅僅是沙拉，還可以作為一種佐料。

And if it's nice and thick, I like to pipe it.

如果它又好又厚，我喜歡用菸斗來裝。

Mayonnaise is a French word but I  don't think the recipe is that old.  

蛋黃醬是一個法語單詞，但我不認為這個配方有那麼古老。

I trained under a French chef and it  set me in good standing! There was a  

我在一位法國廚師手下受訓，這讓我有了很好的地位!有一個

French chef here at Audley End House  before I arrived, Monsieur Merer.  

在我來之前，奧德利恩德府的法國廚師，梅勒先生。

I understand he was very extravagant and  didn't know his way around a pudding!

我知道他非常奢侈，而且不知道如何處理布丁!

As I would like my mayonnaise to set, I'm now  going to add some aspic. Aspic is a savoury jelly  

因為我希望我的蛋黃醬能夠凝固，所以我現在要加入一些蛋白腖。阿斯匹克是一種鹹味的果凍

that can be used to thicken  sauces like this or as a garnish.  

可用於像這樣的醬汁增稠或作為裝飾品。

You can buy aspic nowaways from the grocer,  

你可以從雜貨店買到現成的羊羹。

although it's a good idea to  know how to make your own.  

雖然知道如何自己製作是一個好主意。

We use a good veal stock and calves' feet which  are then boiled down and clarified. A similar  

我們使用優質的小牛肉和小牛的腳，然後將其煮沸並澄清。一個類似

way really to making gelatine although you can  buy very good quality gelatine from the grocer.

雖然你可以從雜貨店買到品質很好的明膠，但真正的方法是製作明膠。

I'm now going to add my vegetables.  Just a small handful of each. Oh,  

我現在要加入我的蔬菜。 每一種都只需一小把。哦。

and my capers and gherkins and olives.

和我的辣椒、小黃瓜和橄欖。

This is a moulded salad so I'm using my Charlotte  mould, but you could use any shape mould:  

這是一個模塑沙拉，所以我使用了我的夏洛特模具，但你可以使用任何形狀的模具。

a conical shape, or even a funnel... if you work  in an ill-equipped kitchen. It's already been  

錐形，甚至是漏斗......如果你在一個設備不全的廚房工作。它已經被

well greased and in the top I've got a circle  of greased paper so the salad will come out.  

抹好油，在上面我放了一圈油紙，這樣沙拉就會出來。

It's sitting in a bowl of ice and all I  need to do now is to add my salad mix.

它正坐在一碗冰塊中，我現在需要做的就是加入我的沙拉混合物。

And now that's ready to go into  the refrigerator — the ice box.

現在已經準備好進入冰箱--冰盒。

Now that I've turned the salad  out, I've put it on a plate  

現在我已經把沙拉翻出來了，我把它放在一個盤子裡

and it's sitting on a bowl of  ice. It's time to decorate it.  

而它正坐在一碗冰上。現在是裝飾它的時候了。

Round the outside I'm going to put some of  the asparagus. I shall dip it in some aspic  

我在外面放一些蘆筍。我將把它浸泡在一些肉汁中

and stick it around the outside.  

並把它貼在外面。

I'm going to keep an eye on the asparagus and  if it looks like they might be coming away,  

我將繼續關注蘆筍的情況，如果它看起來像它們可能會離開。

I'll just tie a piece of string around the outside  to hold them in place until just before we serve.

我就在外面繫上一條繩子，把它們固定住，直到我們上菜前。

For a salad like this, you wouldn't necessarily  need to use the mayonnaise in the middle.  

對於像這樣的沙拉，你不一定需要在中間使用蛋黃醬。

You could just use the mould and then attach  your vegetables all around the outside.  

你可以直接使用模具，然後在外面貼上你的蔬菜。

My favourite set mayonnaise  are the ones with tomatoes.

我最喜歡的套裝蛋黃醬是有番茄的。

Now that the asparagus is in place I'm  going to take a little bit of celeriac.  

現在，蘆筍已經到位，我準備拿一點芹菜。

Celeriac isn't very common so will add a  little bit of exotic taste to the salad.

芹菜不是很常見，所以會給沙拉增加一點異國情調的味道。

And on the celeriac I shall place my little crown.

我將在芹菜上戴上我的小皇冠。

And around it I think some  cauliflower and some of the carrot.

而在它周圍，我想有一些花椰菜和一些胡蘿蔔。

You could use one of the other colours  of carrots: perhaps white or purple.

你可以使用其他顏色的胡蘿蔔之一：也許是白色或紫色。

And now to decorate the plate, I'm  going to use some aspic with beef stock  

現在為了裝飾盤子，我準備用一些帶牛肉湯的肉凍來做裝飾

which should catch the light  very nicely in the dining room.

這應該能很好地捕捉到餐廳裡的光線。

And now I'm going to add some quail's eggs.

現在我還要加入一些鵪鶉蛋。

And there you are. Vegetable salad with aspic.

這就是你。蔬菜沙拉與肉醬。
