1. 1n/ˈdʌmplɪŋ/dough ball in stew麵疙瘩

    A small round ball of dough that is cooked in boiling soup or stew and eaten together with the meat and the liquid.

    這個 dumpling 是西式的:把麵粉、油和水揉成一小球,直接丟進燉湯或燉肉裡煮熟,吸飽湯汁再連湯一起吃,最有名的組合是 chicken and dumplings。它裡面沒有包餡,比較接近台灣的麵疙瘩,而不是水餃。看到英文菜單寫 dumplings,要先看是哪一種——這個用法一定跟湯或燉菜一起出現。

    示範例句 · Example

    Grandma dropped six dumplings into the chicken stew and put the lid back on.

    中文翻譯奶奶把六顆麵團子放進了那鍋雞肉燉湯,並把蓋子蓋了回去。

    這個 dumpling 是甜點:整顆蘋果或一塊水果用派皮包起來烤,切開時裡面是燙燙的果肉和糖汁,最常見的說法是 apple dumpling。它跟第一個意思共用「一團麵包住、煮成一顆」的畫面,但這裡是烤的、甜的,而且裡面一定有水果。在美式餐廳的甜點單上看到 dumpling,多半就是這個。
