姜汁餅是西方傳統(tǒng)的圣誕節(jié)食品,很多美國(guó)人過圣誕節(jié)都會(huì)自己制作一個(gè)姜汁餅屋,但是恐怕哪家的餅屋都沒有總統(tǒng)家的那么豪華吧。白宮所有的員工,從木匠,管道工到電工都會(huì)協(xié)助廚房一起完成,快來看看這個(gè)夸張的餅屋長(zhǎng)啥樣兒吧!
Each year, the White House Pastry Team comes together with other members of the White House staff to work on a favorite holiday tradition: The White House Gingerbread House. Everyone from White House carpenters to plumbers to electricians lend their expertise to help make this project a success. The recipe called for more than 150 pounds of gingerbread dough and 250 lbs of white chocolate. Special features of this year's gingerbread house include a shadow box view of the State Dining Room and marzipan renderings of the vegetable garden and our favorite four-pawed friend, Bo.
每年,對(duì)于白宮的點(diǎn)心小組來說,這是每年白宮的一項(xiàng)傳統(tǒng):制作白宮姜汁餅屋。白宮所有的員工,從木匠,管道工到電工都會(huì)協(xié)助他們一起完成。一個(gè)姜汁餅屋要耗費(fèi)150磅姜汁面團(tuán),250(英)磅的白巧克力。今年還增加了新的元素,廚師們把微縮的總統(tǒng)餐廳,蔬菜園和小狗Bo也加了進(jìn)來。
