Blancmange布丁凍 cold冰涼、soft軟嫩、sweet又香甜的 pudding布丁。You你 milk牛奶 with sugar and cornflour加糖和玉米粉 cook一起煮 until it thickens到變濃稠,then然後 chill冰 until it sets到凝固,like a gentle jelly像溫和的果凍一樣 and wobbles地顫動。
In Britain it is an old-fashioned pudding, often white or pink, and children used to eat it a lot; American English hardly uses the word. You say it rather like bluh-monj, not blank-mange.
In Britain在英國,it它 an old-fashioned pudding是一種老式的布丁,often white or pink通常是白色或粉紅色,and children used to eat it a lot以前小孩常吃很多;American English美式英文 hardly uses the word很少用這個字。You你 say唸 it這個字 rather like bluh-monj比較像bluh-monj,not像 blank-mange不是像blank-mange。
Though actually, the name is older than the pudding on the plate today. It comes from Old French blanc mangier, white food. Hundreds of years ago it was a pale dish of chicken and almonds for rich tables; the meat slowly dropped away, and what remained is this milk jelly. So the word still points at white food, but nobody is serving chicken when they bring out blancmange now.
Though actually不過其實,the name這名字 than比 the pudding on the plate today今天盤子上的布丁 is older還要老。It comes from它來自 Old French古法文 blanc mangier『blanc mangier』,white food意思是「白色的食物」。Hundreds of years ago幾百年前,it was它是 for rich tables給有錢人家 a pale dish of chicken and almonds吃的一道雞肉配杏仁的淡色菜餚;the meat slowly dropped away後來肉慢慢被拿掉了,and what remained剩下的 is this milk jelly就是這種牛奶凍。So the word still points at white food所以這個字依然指著「白色食物」,when they bring out blancmange now但現在端出blancmange時,nobody is serving chicken沒有人是在端雞肉。
