49. The Culinary Vocabulary Russians Always Get Wrong

from 5 минут английского с Лорой Пикенс | 5 Minutes of English with Laura Pickens

THE COOKING VERBS THAT RUSSIAN DOESN’T HAVEIn this episode, we dive into the messy, delicious world of cooking vocabulary — and why Russian learners get lost the moment they translate the word “fry.” English has dozens of verbs for different cooking techniques: sauté, roast, sear, broil, bake, boil, sweat… and they all mean something different. Using the wrong one can even lead to a culinary disaster, as you’ll hear in my very true, very funny fried-chicken story. If you want to cook (or understand recipes) in English, this episode will save you a lot of confusion.If you like how I teach you can learn more at laurapickens.ru/podcastКУЛИНАРНЫЕ ГЛАГОЛЫ, КОТОРЫХ НЕТ В РУССКОМВ этом выпуске мы говорим о мире кулинарной лексики и о том, почему русскоговорящие сразу теряются, как только переводят слово «жарить». В английском десятки глаголов для разных способов приготовления: sauté, roast, sear, broil, bake, boil, sweat… и каждый означает что-то своё. Ошибка может привести к настоящей катастрофе — как в моей истории с «жареной курицей». Если вы хотите готовить по-английски или понимать рецепты без путаницы, этот эпизод вам поможет.Если вам нравится мой подход, больше вы найдете на laurapickens.ru/podcast
