Subject: pie funnel Пожалуйста, помогите перевести.Выражение встречается в следующем контексте: Put a pie funnel or handless cup in the middle. Речь идет о приготовлении пирога с почками. Рекомендуется положить мясо в форму для пирога и дать остыть, при этом нечто, типа воронки (?) поставить в середину. О тесте еще речь не заходила, так что совершенно непонятно, зачем там чашка без ручки или этот pie funnel. Заранее спасибо |
Нашла Вам объяснение на английском сайте. По-моему всё понятно. Если неясно, спрашивайте. Pie funnels are devices designed to improve the top crust (верхнюю корочку) of a pie as it bakes. When you put a crust on top of your pie filling, you’re creating a sealed vessel containing a lot of moisture (замкнутый сосуд с огромным содержанием влаги). As the pie bakes, some of that moisture turns to steam—and if the crust is completely sealed, the steam pressure can blow a hole through it, covering the inside of your oven (разбрызгивая начинку по всей духовке). This is why lattice pie (пирог с "плетёнкой") crusts were invented: not only do they look impressive, they leave plenty of holes for the steam to escape. But there’s more than one way to skin a pie. A pie funnel is a hollow ceramic doohickey (to use a highly technical pie term) that stands a few inches high, with one or more openings near the bottom and a vent at the top—thus approximating the design of an upside-down funnel. In fact, the exact shape of a pie funnel is irrelevant; they are often made in the shape of birds (and called “pie birds”), but you can also find gnomes, chess pieces, and a variety of other designs that serve the same purpose. To use a pie funnel, you cover the bottom of the pie pan with dough as usual, place the funnel in the middle, and pour the filling around it. Then you lay on the top crust, with the pie funnel poking through and its top vent exposed; for best results, pinch the crust around the outside of the pie funnel to seal it. As the pie bakes, the pie funnel vents steam from inside the pie, which helps to keep the crust from splitting, prevents the filling from boiling over, and serves to reduce and concentrate the juices. It also supports the top pie crust, keeping it from sagging into the filling and getting soggy. Depending on the shape of the pie funnel, you may or may not be able to remove it before slicing the pie. Either way, your pie will be a little goofy-looking, but that’s a small price to pay for an otherwise perfect crust.— |
Спасибо :-) я так и предполагала. Правда, накогда не видела таких устройств у нас, вот форму для бисквитов с этой штукой в середине - да. Придется описательно переводить, наверное. Спасибо еще раз. |
