纽约餐厅的店主Will Horowitz先生用西瓜造出了全新的“熏火腿”,奇怪吗?
If youre a vegetarian who is curious about or misses the taste of smoked ham, youll be pleased to learn that theres an interesting substitute you can try.
Will Horowitz, owner of Ducks Eatery in East Village, NYC, has caused an Internet sensation(轰动) with his new “smoked ham” which actually consists not of meat, but a whole watermelon. At first glance, Wills creation looks entirely like meat. And even when you cut into it, the middle has red “flesh”. But the taste is something different,while the initial taste is a salty, meaty one, it quickly transforms into sweetness, especially as you get closer into the center of the “ham”.
How does Will make a fruit taste like meat? His secret is to prepare the watermelon in a similar fashion to meat. First, he peels the watermelon of its skin and marinates(腌) it for four days in a secret combination of herbs, ash, and salt. Once the watermelon is done marinating, he smokes it for eight hours.
While some social media users have reacted to this vegetarian ham with positivity and eagerness to try such a feat, others arent as enthusiastic. However, Will has accepted the criticism readily. He enjoys pushing his creativity to the limits in order to bring his diners (就餐者) new dishes: “Thats the whole point of food and cooking! You take things, and you cook and manipulate (控制) it into something new! Thats whats fun, thats whats interesting, thats what you should be seeking for. Dont be so closed minded about foods! Taste, and then make a decision!” This isnt the first time Will has experimented with fruit on his menu, which, I think will also not be the last time.
