My favourite dish
I find it difficult to say what the world cuisine I prefer. However, I do know that
I love sweets. My favourite dish is a "Napoleon"
cake. In
fact, the history of its name has nothing to do with the French commander, and
the cake’s name refers to the "Naples" (Naples origin). In our country, the first time
this dessert tasted in the early 20th century. It immediately gained popularity among the people.
"Napoleon" dessert is a layer cake with a light custard cream, sometimes
the cream could be replaced with condensed milk filling. This meal is beyond all praise. Every homemaker prepares it
for own recipe. I
love my mother's recipe for this dish, with usage of some fresh berries.
Once I tried to cook it with some frozen puff pastry just to get it in short time, it was quite tasty, but my mom’s recipe
was the prefect one. In fact, I would be interested to know whether this dish was tasted by Napoleon.
Если нужен перевод: Я затрудняюсь
сказать, какую кухню мира я предпочитаю. Тем не менее, я точно знаю, что люблю
сладости. Моим любимым блюдом является торт «Наполеон». На самом деле, история
его названия никак не связана с французским полководцем, название относится к «Неаполитанский»
(неаполитанского происхождения). В нашей стране впервые этот десерт попробовали
в начале 20 века. Он сразу приобрел популярность среди населения.
Торт «Наполеон» представляет
собой слоеный пирог с легким яично-молочным кремом, иногда крем заменяют на сгущённое
молоко. Эта еда выше всяких похвал. Каждая хозяйка готовит его по своему рецепту. Я очень люблю мамин
рецепт этого блюда, с добавлением свежих ягод. Однажды я попробовала
приготовить его с замороженного слоеного теста, было вкусно, но мамин рецепт
был лучше. На самом деле, мне интересно было ли блюдо попробовано самим Наполеоном.
