When eating in a Western restaurant, there are many things to pay attention to. For example, there are many opinions on the degree of cooked meat. Everyone has different tastes, and the waiter will also ask special questions when ordering so that he can serve dishes that suit the guest's taste. This time we will take a look at the expression of "somewhat cooked".

1. How do you like your steak cooked?

How cooked should your steak be?

Usually order steak, or go to a higher-end restaurant When ordering a beef burger, the waiter will ask you How do you like itcooked? There are several ways to answer: well done is well done, medium rare is mediumwell, medium rare is medium, medium rare is mediumrare, medium rare It's rare.

So, what do these different steaks taste like? People who have never eaten it may find it a bit difficult to imagine. In fact, you can tell how the steak you want will look like when cooked by touching various parts of your head. Well-done is similar to the feeling on the top of the head, which is hard; medium well is the forehead, which is slightly elastic; medium is the tip of the nose, which is soft; and rare is the softest part of the chin. I also remember that when I was watching a cooking show, a foreigner taught me how to cook steak. The feeling of a medium-rare steak was similar to the feeling of touching the meat near the bone in the tiger's mouth on your hand. You can try it when you eat steak again.

2. How do you like your egg cooked?

How cooked should your egg be?

The degree of cookedness of eggs is different from that of meat. For eggs that need to be put in the frying pan, the answer is 1. Scramble scrambled eggs (that is, fully cooked), 2. Sunny sideup fried poached eggs with only one side (because poached eggs look like the sun, so Americans use sunny side to describe them), 3. Sunny side down/easeover fry both sides.

There are also boiled eggs. There are two types of this. In Chinese, they are divided into "tender" and "old", while in English they are soft boil and hard boil. The so-called softboil means that the yolk is still a little liquid, while hard boil means that the entire yolk is cooked into a solid state.

3. Did you burn it?

Did you burn it?

After saying "somewhat cooked", I digressed. We have already talked about "raw" and "cooked", but do you know how to say "overcooked - burnt"? In fact, it is very simple to burn.

4. Can I have some more bread?

Can you give me some more bread?

Everyone knows that bread is bread. It should be noted that the toast bread we often see is called toast, but they are just bread. The so-called toast bread is actually toasted bread with a layer of garlic or butter spread on it.
