Mousse

“Mousse” 指一种质地轻盈、充满空气感的物质。它可以是甜点(如巧克力慕斯),也可以是护发产品(摩丝),甚至是某些咸味菜肴(如鱼肉慕斯)。

  1. “For dessert, we had a delicious chocolate mousse topped with fresh cream.” (甜点我们吃了美味的巧克力慕斯,上面覆有新鲜奶油。)
  2. “She applied some hair mousse to give her thin hair more volume.” (她抹了一些护发摩丝,让稀疏的头发看起来更蓬松。)
  3. “The chef prepared a light salmon mousse for the appetizer.” (大厨准备了一道清爽的三文鱼慕斯作为开胃菜。)

源自法语 “mousse”,意为“泡沫”。

无明显词缀。

慕斯起源于18世纪的法国。作为一种法式烹饪技术,它强调通过打发蛋清或奶油来创造极其细腻的口感,体现了法餐对质地(texture)的极致追求。

  • 复数: mousses
  • 动词: mousse (给…抹摩丝)

联想 “mouth” (嘴)。口感细腻到入口即化(in your mouth)。或者谐音“摩丝”。

“Lily was trying to make chocolate mousse for her mother’s birthday. She followed the recipe carefully, beating the egg whites until they were fluffy. When her mother took a bite, she said it was like eating a sweet, chocolate-flavored cloud.” (莉莉正试着为妈妈的生日做巧克力慕斯。她仔细按照食谱,将蛋清打发至蓬松。当她妈妈尝了一口时,说这感觉就像在吃一朵甜甜的、巧克力味的云。)
