The World Inside a Bowl of Pudding
踏入百變布丁的世界
When people hear the word “pudding,” many think of the soft and sweet dessert. However, pudding was originally quite different. The earliest puddings in Europe were actually savory dishes made with meat, fat, grains, and even animal blood. These were prepared with sausage-making methods, which were introduced to Britain when the Romans occupied the country. One famous example is black pudding, a type of blood sausage that is still popular in some European countries today.
當人們聽到「布丁」這個詞,很多人會想到柔軟香甜的甜點。然而,布丁最初的模樣卻大不相同。歐洲最早的布丁其實是用肉、脂肪、穀物甚至動物血製成的鹹食。這些布丁是以製作香腸的方法來備製的,這種方法在古羅馬人佔領英國時被引進該國。其中一個著名的例子是黑布丁,一種至今在某些歐洲國家仍然很受歡迎的血腸。
