Salads Disguised As Cakes Are A Hit In Japan
吃货福利!沙拉也能做成蛋糕
Residents of Nagoya, Japan will no longer have to subject themselves to eating wilted lettuce and soggy tomatoes to be healthy. They can instead fulfill the daily recommended requirement of fruits and vegetables with a slice or two of one of the delicious cakes crafted by Japanese food artist, Mitsuki Moriyasu.
日本名古屋的居民们有福了!他们不必为了健康,勉强自己去吃蔫蔫的生菜叶和黏糊糊的西红柿了。只需来一两块日本食物造型师Mitsuki Moriyasu的美味蛋糕,就可满足日常所需的蔬果营养。
That's because though the beautiful Vegedeco "cakes" may look like the real deal, they are salads in disguise! Instead of serving the vegetables in a bowl, the artist hides them within the layers of the 'sponge cake' that is made from soybean. As for the thick frosting? That is just a mixture of cream cheese and tofu with vegetables blended in to provide the vibrant colors.
“蛋糕沙拉”虽然看起来跟真实蛋糕相似,但用的其实都是沙拉原料。这种沙拉打破了把沙拉装在盘里的惯例,各种蔬菜沙拉层层堆叠在大豆制作的“海绵蛋糕”内部。而蛋糕涂层则是豆腐或奶油乳酪混合蔬果调和而成的,色泽十分鲜亮。
Moriyasu, who came up with the idea as a way to make greens more palatable to those that do not enjoy them, began selling her amazing creations at the Bistro La Porte Marseille restaurant in Nagoya in June 2015. They were an instant hit and became so popular that she recently decided to open an entire cafe dedicated to healthy eating.
这个创意来自Moriyasu,她想把沙拉做成不爱吃蔬菜的人群也能接受的样子。随后,她付诸实践,2015年的夏天,在Bistro La Porte Marseille餐厅正式推出了她的创意之作。结果刚推出就备受推崇,最近她还考虑开一家只提供绿色饮食的咖啡厅。
At her Vegedeco Salad Cafe that opened its doors on April 5, customers can select from a variety of "cakes" depending on their vegetable preference. Each slice is accompanied by a fermented dressing made with koji (Japanese sake starter) and costs 735 yen ($7 USD). For an additional 100 yen, patrons can get a slice of gluten-free bread made from an ancient strain of rice, and a hot cup of tea that gets its gorgeous color from — you guessed it — Vegetables!
今年4月,她的“沙拉蛋糕咖啡厅“正式营业,顾客根据自己喜好,可以选择各式各样的蛋糕。每块蛋糕都有发酵后的日本青曲酒制成的酱汁,售价为735日元(7美元)。老客人还能再加100日元换购一块原始水稻制成的无麸质面包,还有一杯颜色绚丽的热茶——猜猜颜色哪来的?当时是蔬菜!
Though the menu features numerous other healthy offerings that have been carefully selected by Moriyasu, the one thing you will not find at the Vegedeco Salad Cafe is dessert! So be sure to leave your sweet tooth behind!
虽然菜单上有Moriyasu精心挑选多种健康菜式供您选择,但唯一不提供的就是传统甜点。所以您来这里就不要考虑吃甜食啦!
