“皮蛋”英語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)
摘要：媒體報(bào)道江西省南昌縣3家禽蛋加工廠涉嫌使用工業(yè)硫酸銅腌制皮蛋后，再次引發(fā)網(wǎng)友對(duì)食品安全的廣泛討論。你知道怎么用英語(yǔ)表達(dá)嗎?
Factories in Nanchang county in Jiangxi were the main source of "the toxic preserved eggsincident" and 30 companies have been closed by authorities since the discovery. Other factories are still undergoing investigation.
Preserved eggs generally take about two months to create, using baking soda, salt, and quicklime.
The plants were guilty of adding industrial copper sulphate to the eggs to speed up the production schedule, halving the time to a month.
此次曝光的“有毒皮蛋”主要來(lái)源于江西南昌的一些生產(chǎn)企業(yè)，30余家皮蛋加工廠已被勒令停產(chǎn)，其余工廠也正在接受調(diào)查。
通常，皮蛋的腌制時(shí)間約兩個(gè)月，會(huì)加入小蘇打、鹽、石灰等原料。
但是江西南昌的這些皮蛋工廠違法使用工業(yè)硫酸銅腌制皮蛋，使得皮蛋的制作周期縮短至一個(gè)月左右。
【講解】
文中"preserved egg"即是皮蛋的意思，也可以表達(dá)為"preserved duck egg", 或者"thousand-year egg"。
其中preserved可譯為“腌制的”，如preserved food (腌制食品)，類似的表達(dá)還有smoked (煙熏的)，salted (鹽腌的)，canned (罐裝的)等。
文中的“copper sulphate”譯為硫酸銅，這些企業(yè)采用的是工業(yè)級(jí)別的原料，根本無(wú)法用于食品生產(chǎn)。
