【BBC紀(jì)錄片】老媽私房菜 第66期:打蛋器

Welcome to the high tech, low tech challenge!

歡迎來(lái)到高低科技挑戰(zhàn)賽

And this week it's whisks.

本周的主題是打蛋器

Do you know what I mean, there's whisks?We've gotwhisks from the very primitive, to the verysophisticated.

說(shuō)到打蛋器 我們準(zhǔn)備了最原始的和最先進(jìn)的

Whisks are an essential kitchen utensil for making perfect sauces or, to beat eggs, especiallythe whites.

每個(gè)廚房都有打蛋器 這是制作醬料不可或缺的工具 包括打蛋 尤其是打蛋白

Gerard, who's a real history anorak, has been busy making a whisk out of twigs.

杰拉德剛剛一直在忙著用樹(shù)枝做出一個(gè)打蛋器

Naturally, it was the first type of whisk.

這算是第一代打蛋器

Then we've got the rotary egg beater, invented in 1870 by American, Turner Williams.

這是美國(guó)人特納威廉姆斯在1870年發(fā)明的旋轉(zhuǎn)打蛋器

It's still really popular today.

直到今天仍然十分流行

The balloon whisk is the most common one in our kitchens today.

這種像熱氣球的打蛋器是現(xiàn)代我們廚房里面用的最多的

Probably because it was the first whisk used on TV in the '50s.

也許因?yàn)檫@是上世紀(jì)五十年代在電視上用的第一個(gè)打蛋器就是這種

The flat whisk is a variation on the balloon whisk,but used mainly for sauces, so I don'texpect it to do that well with egg whites.

這種扁平打蛋器是由熱氣球打蛋器演變而來(lái)的 主要用于制作醬料 所以可能不適合打蛋白

And in the high tech category, we've got a hand held automatic whisk with two rotatingbeaters, invented by Herbert Johnston in 1908.

我們有約翰斯頓在1908年發(fā)明的自動(dòng)打蛋器 帶有兩個(gè)攪拌器

And a much revered food mixer, which has been helping mums across the world, since the sameperiod.

當(dāng)然還有人人都愛(ài)的電動(dòng)打蛋器 全世界的媽媽們都愛(ài)它 這也是同期發(fā)明出來(lái)的

And it's my turn to use the gadget, Kingy.

今天由我來(lái)用這些打蛋器

Now, we need to decide which one is the best. So we're not going to get that with whisking theeggs.We want you to separate the eggs, and it's the whites we want.

我們要決出誰(shuí)是最好的 所以不能打全蛋 需要分離蛋黃和蛋白

So it's the first to firm peaks, is the winner.

第一個(gè)把蛋白打出來(lái)的就是贏家

Dave?We've got a Ninja in our midst.

大衛(wèi) 我們之間有一匹黑馬

I bet you this lady has separated more eggs in her lifetime,than we could ever hope. Oh,aye.She just looks the type.

我打賭這位女士這么多年打的雞蛋絕對(duì)讓我們望塵莫及 她看起來(lái)就是這種人

Remember it's the whites we're after. Firm peaks.

記得我們要留下蛋白

Count to three.

數(shù)到三

Hold on, hold on!Put your eggs back in the thingy, you lot.

等等 把雞蛋放回去 你這個(gè)家伙

You stop leading them astray.

不要帶壞別人

Mr Myers.Three, two, one. Off!

開(kāi)始數(shù)吧 三二一

The point of whisking or beating raw egg whites, is to incorporate air bubbles which make itchange colour,and can increase the volume by up to eight times.

打蛋白的關(guān)鍵是打入空氣 如此一來(lái)蛋白的顏色將會(huì)改變 并且體積也會(huì)變成原來(lái)的八倍

Peak, you ... thing!

使勁點(diǎn)

I think I'll just get a cup of tea!

我想我需要來(lái)杯茶

Oh, I'm running out of steam.

我快沒(méi)力氣了

And it's the same effect when you cook them.

烘焙蛋白的時(shí)候同理

Like in a souffle, the air bubbles heat up and expand, making the souffle rise.

在做舒芙蕾的時(shí)候 打入的空氣會(huì)升溫膨脹從而使舒芙蕾變大

I think I'm there.

我想我好了

The electric food mixers are definitely the winners,they're perfect for the job.

電動(dòng)攪拌器肯定是贏家 他們是理想工具

But there is only one way to check if the other whisks can make firm peaks.

但只有一種方法檢驗(yàn)其他攪拌器能否打出硬性發(fā)泡

Right, that's interesting.See if it works with Kingy's.

真有趣 看看金做得怎么樣

You know what, Kingy?If you've got a few bob, go electric.If not, get a rotary egg beater.

金 如果你挺有錢的話 還是買個(gè)電動(dòng)的吧 沒(méi)錢的旋轉(zhuǎn)式的也行

Not really the most scientific test, but they all did the job.

雖然這個(gè)試驗(yàn)科學(xué)性不強(qiáng) 但各個(gè)打蛋器都完成了任務(wù)

And frankly, it just depends how much exercise you want when you're beating your eggs.

所以說(shuō)實(shí)話 攪拌的好不好全在乎你用多大力氣攪拌
