Charlotte: Mmm, something smells good.
夏洛特:好好闻的味道。
Mohamed: Hey, put down that lid!
穆罕默德:嘿,把锅盖子放下。
Charlotte: Sorry, I just wanted to see what you’re making.
夏洛特:对不起,我只是想看看那你在做什么。
Mohamed: I’m making chicken soup.
穆罕默德:我只是在做鸡汤。
Charlotte: I’m really in the mood for a hearty stew. There’s nothing more appetizing on a cold day than a good stew.
夏洛特:我真的非常想吃一顿丰盛的炖菜。在寒冷的冬天,没什么比一锅热汤菜更让人有食欲了。
Mohamed: Right, well, this is a simple chicken soup with a clear stock and vegetables.
穆罕默德:好吧,这只是一道有些菜和高汤的鸡汤,
Charlotte: All you would have to do is thicken the soup and let it simmer a little longer. Then, presto! You have a stew.
夏洛特:你要做的是让汤变浓稠,让汤炖的时间更长点。然后,你就会有一锅炖汤了。
Mohamed: I get it. You’re partial to thick soups, but I feel like making a simple chicken soup. I don’t have time to cook a stew in a slow cooker, which is how I usually make it, not in a pot.
穆罕默德:我明白了,你更喜欢浓汤,但是我只是在做一道鸡汤。用一个慢炖煲没有时间做一锅炖汤,平时做汤的时候,不是用罐。
Charlotte: All right, all right. Oh, a nice purée or bisque would be nice too. Doesn’t a chowder sound good right now? I could really go for a nice bowl of chowder.
夏洛特:好好好。鸡汤也是不错了。你不觉得杂烩羹汤听起来很不错吗?我真的想喝一碗杂烩羹汤。
Mohamed: Fine, we’ll have chowder for dinner tomorrow.
穆罕默德:好,明天我们做杂烩羹汤。
Charlotte: Really?
夏洛特:真的?
Mohamed: Yes, and it’ll be the best chowder you’ve ever tasted – that comes out of a can.
穆罕默德:是的,这比你以往尝过的杂烩羹汤味道都要好,这个汤是用罐盛的。
