一提到英式禮儀,很多英國人腦海裡都會蹦出這個人——威廉·漢森(William Hanson)。
這位自帶傲嬌氣質的英國禮儀大師,被讚譽為英國最年輕的禮儀專家,也是風靡全球的經典英劇《唐頓莊園》的禮儀顧問。
他還經常出入英國各種電視節目親授禮儀,順便把主持人「逼瘋」~
William親自示範教學,教你如何做一杯香醇的現磨咖啡!
一上來就傲嬌吐槽速溶咖啡是垃圾,解釋了咖啡杯和英式茶杯的區別所在,還帶來小科普:喝咖啡為啥要加黃糖brown sugar,喝茶只能要加白糖white sugar。
(還有那個一語雙關的英文單詞,果然是腐國人沒跑了...)
Now, we may be a nation of tea drinkers, but I'm going to get something to you.都說我們英國人愛喝茶,但今天我要教你們點不一樣的。In the morning there's nothing I like better than a nice cup of coffee, and not some of that instant muck you might serve a tradesman or one of your friends you don't like, but proper coffee, which requires all of these sort of accoutrements. 每天清晨,還有啥能比來一杯好咖啡更提神醒腦的呢? 當然不是那種速溶垃圾啦。那種咖啡只能拿來招待上門推銷員和你最討厭的"朋友"。咱們要說的是正宗咖啡,所以這些裝備器材全都得備好。First thing in the morning, I'm straight on grinder - with an 'E', with my coffee beans. They go in here, produce my freshly ground coffee and it goes in the cafetiere. Now this is quite a large cafetiere, but you can get different sizes. 每天早晨第一件事,我會直接磨上咖啡豆, 我說的是帶"E"的"Grinder磨豆機"喲!將豆子放進磨豆機,研磨出一杯香醇的現磨咖啡。將磨好的咖啡粉放入咖啡壺,這算是個蠻大的咖啡壺,也有許多不同大小的壺可選。【註解】不帶"E"的Grindr:與磨豆機Grinder發音一樣,是當下最火爆的Gay交友約會應用。"Straight on Grindr"(用Grindr的直男),反諷用Grindr的沒可能是直男...
it's smaller one I use in the morning if it's just me having the coffee. In the morning, I will have my coffee from a coffee cup. Now note that a coffee cup is completely round. A teacup, they usually have a foot, they set on a foot. A coffee cup is completely cylindrical. 早晨只有我一人喝咖啡,一般都會使用小壺。將衝泡好的咖啡倒入咖啡杯中享用。大家注意喔,咖啡杯整個是呈圓形的,而英式茶杯通常都有杯託或杯腳,咖啡杯都是圓柱狀的直杯口。 If I were serving coffee at the end of a dinner party at home, you'd want obviously a much smaller quantity of it, because otherwise, you're going to be wide awake. Once they get home, and they're not really going to be very grateful to you. They're even going to send you their 'thank you letters'. 要是在晚餐結束後 想給客人來上一杯香濃的咖啡,當然這時喝的咖啡量要少很多,否則那就一整晚都賊清醒沒的睡了。等客人們回家後,心裡肯定對你充滿怨念,甚至還會給你寄來一封"感謝信"。And so you'd serve it in a demitasse cup - a demitasse meaning 'half the cup', because you want a much smaller quantity of it. And you'd serve it with your demitasse spoon, so if they add milk and sugar, they can stir it, a normal teaspoon wouldn't fit in it. 所以最好用濃縮咖啡專用的小杯來盛放。demitasse這個詞的意思是 "半杯",只喝少量咖啡就可以了。同理,你也得配上小咖啡勺。 客人需要加奶加糖,用小勺就可以攪拌,正常大小的茶匙並不適用於小杯。If they're adding sugar to coffee, it should be a brown sugar, because it's molasses sugar. One of the worst crimes you could do, is adding brown sugar to tea, because it caramelises with the tannins in the tea. Or as in coffee, a molasses sugar goes a lot better.往咖啡裡加糖,應該放的是黃糖,因為黃糖屬於粗加工。你要是敢往茶裡加黃糖,那簡直就是在犯罪啊!黃糖碰上茶葉中的單寧,會變得味苦有焦糖味,但喝咖啡還是加黃糖口感會更好。If you were serving milk, I'd like to serve freshly frothed milk. And so you can buy this little frothing wand and froth away until your heart's content. 如果往咖啡中加奶,我喜歡剛打發完的新鮮奶泡。你可以入手一個小的打奶泡器,然後就開打吧,打到心滿意足為止。You might also want to serve some freshly made biscotti amaretti. Obviously, don't dunk it in your coffee because that's commo. And if you don't have a grinder or can't be bothered, you can always buy ready-ground beans from a reputable coffee company, or even a supermarket. 你也可以配上一些新鮮烘焙出爐的意式杏仁餅。當然啦,千萬別用杏仁餅蘸咖啡啊,這是很常見的錯誤。要是家裡沒有磨豆機,或是沒那個閒工夫去磨咖啡豆,你也可以在某些信譽良好的咖啡店買到磨好的咖啡粉,再不濟就去超市買吧。 Quite like a cup of tea now...
