A:What's for dinner?晚餐吃什么?
B:Leftovers.剩饭。
A:What? Leftovers of what and from when?什么?什么剩饭,什么时候的?
B:From last night! I took the left over turkey, mixed it with some diced peppers and onions, added a little bit of mayonnaise and made some sandwiches!昨晚剩下的有切碎的辣椒和洋葱的火鸡,还有一些蛋黄酱,可以做些三明治。
A:Isn't that dangerous though? I mean bacteria and germs reproducing on food that was left out or re-heated?这么久了,还能吃吗?我是说放这么久,即使加热,细菌还是会繁殖的。
B:Well, I didn't leave the turkey out at room temperature for more than a an hour and I refrigerated it soon after we finished eating. Also, when reheating, I put it in the oven for fifteen minutes at one hundred degrees Celsius.嗯,我们把火鸡放在室温下超过了一个小时,我们吃完后就放进了冰箱。后来,放在100摄氏度的微波炉里加热了15分钟。
A:Well OK, I am just afraid of getting food poisoning.嗯,好的,我只是担心会食物中毒。
B:Don't worry about it! Making a new meal out of leftovers is almost an art! Not only do you save money, but you also get to be creative and have something different to eat!不用担心!用剩饭剩菜重新做新的食物简直就是艺术!这样不仅可以省钱,还可以让你学会创新,有不同的东西可以吃!
