Caesar Salad

Read a short passage about how a salad with romaine lettuce, croutons, and dressing became a classic starter.

1.1

Caesar salad is a popular dish that many people enjoy. It is made with simple ingredients like lettuce, small pieces of toasted bread called croutons, Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, olive oil, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and black pepper. The salad is famous for its creamy dressing and crunchy croutons.

シーザーサラダは多くの人々に楽しまれている人気のある料理です。レタス、クロトンと呼ばれる小さなトーストしたパンの切れ端、パルメザンチーズ、レモン汁、オリーブオイル、卵、ウスターソース、ニンニク、黒胡椒などのシンプルな材料で作られています。このサラダはクリーミーなドレッシングとサクサクしたクロトンで有名です。

1.2

The salad has an interesting history. It was made in 1924 by "Caesar Cardini," an Italian chef who had a restaurant in Tijuana, Mexico. One busy weekend, he ran out of many ingredients. He then used what he had left to create a new salad. People liked it so much that they named it "Caesar salad" because of him.

サラダには興味深い歴史があります。それは1924年に、メキシコのティファナにレストランを持っていたイタリア人シェフの「シーザー・カルディーニ」によって作られました。ある忙しい週末、彼は多くの材料を使い果たしました。それから、彼は残っていたものを使って新しいサラダを作りました。人々はそれをとても気に入り、彼にちなんで「シーザーサラダ」と名付けました。

1.3

Making Caesar salad is easy. You start by tearing lettuce into pieces. Then you add croutons and sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top. For the dressing, you mix lemon juice, olive oil, a bit of egg, Worcestershire sauce, crushed garlic, and black pepper. Put this on the lettuce, add the croutons and cheese, and mix everything together.

シーザーサラダを作るのは簡単です。まずレタスを手でちぎります。次にクルトンを加え、上にパルメザンチーズを少し振りかけます。ドレッシングには、レモン汁、オリーブオイル、少しの卵、ウスターソース、つぶしたニンニク、黒胡椒を混ぜます。これをレタスにかけ、クルトンとチーズを加え、すべてを混ぜ合わせます。

1.6

Fun fact : The original idea was to keep the lettuce leaves whole, and people had to use their hands to eat! The salad was designed to be eaten by hand, not with a fork and knife.

面白い事実:元々のアイデアはレタスの葉をそのままの形で保ち、人々は手を使って食べなければならなかったということです!サラダはフォークとナイフではなく、手で食べるように設計されていました。
