荃灣火鍋店近日一對男女顧客在享用放題時，將大量食材偷偷塞入環保袋，準備來個「滿載而歸」。殊不知，整個過程被職員胸前的隨身攝錄機拍下，當場人贓俱獲。 影片所見，男職員手持托盤走近二人座位，語氣客氣卻堅定地指出：「閉路電視拍到你們不小心拿了些食物放進袋子。」用「不小心」已相當委婉。 從影片可見，男子起初只肯交出一袋用環保袋盛載的海產，在職員堅持下，他才不情願地徒手抓出一大抽肥牛放回桌上。他這場「食材大遷移計劃」之規模，着實令人O嘴，看來這位男子想將他帶來的環保袋變「行動雪櫃」。環保袋原本是為了保護環境，如今卻成了順手牽羊的工具，這恐怕是環保先驅們始料未及的。 當「走塑」變成「走貨」，環保袋的意義也被徹底顛覆。最後交出的「戰利品」更是琳琅滿目：生蠔、鮮蝦、魚片、肥牛，應有盡有。最諷刺的是，部分鮮蝦仍然生猛跳動。火鍋店職員從頭到尾保持冷靜，「咁大袋？」「成袋呀？」即使我從影片亦可目測，無論分量和種類之多，足夠四個成年人回家再打過一場邊爐。 放題文化本身就在挑戰人性的貪念。「任食」二字，彷彿打開了潘多拉的盒子，激發人們「吃回本」的原始慾望。 然而，將食材打包帶走，已經超出「食量」範疇，進入「貪念」領域。現代社會的消費心理，往往在「需要」與「想要」之間迷失方向。事件最後，食材物歸火鍋店，貪心食客悻然離去。但留給我們的思考卻遠未結束：記得黃子華在棟篤笑中講過，當年香港，我們常見「面斥不雅」，例如茶餐廳有「座位有限，面斥不雅」，大家都明是甚麼意思，即是不用說得那麼白，不要別人當面斥責你，因為大家心中有把尺，都會明甚麼是過界、過分、過火的行為。但我們的香港，為甚麼近年好像愈來愈多「面斥也不覺不雅」之徒，在本地或外地做出失禮肉酸兼丟香港人架之事？這個本地肥牛男子就是一例。 撰文 : 利嘉敏 欄名 : 攻關女子 Source link
秋高氣爽，十月微涼正是聚會好時節。平時聚會常見炸雞翼或滷水雞翼，味道或許單一，今次推薦一道美式經典——水牛城雞翼。 水牛城雞翼食譜（八人份，空氣炸鍋版） 材料：雞翅中段2公斤、鹽1 1/3茶匙、黑胡椒2/3茶匙、粟粉2 2/3湯匙、油適量（噴霧用）。 做法：雞翼中段抹鹽、黑胡椒，裹粟粉，靜置30分鐘，噴少許油。空氣炸鍋預熱至180℃，分批放入雞翼（避免重疊），180℃氣炸12至15分鐘，翻面中途一次，至外皮酥脆。將氣炸好嘅雞翼淋辣醬拌勻。配醬料上桌。 辣醬材料及做法：牛油130克、Tabasco 160毫升、蜂蜜1 1/3湯匙、白醋1 1/3湯匙。小火融牛油，加Tabasco、蜂蜜、白醋攪勻。 藍芝士醬材料及做法：藍芝士65克、酸奶130克、蒜蓉1 1/3茶匙、鹽少許。藍芝士醬：藍芝士壓碎，加酸奶、蒜蓉、鹽拌勻（或用田園沙律醬）。 小貼士：兩公斤分量可分一至兩批處理，確保均勻受熱。 這道菜式起源於一九六四年紐約水牛城Anchor Bar，外脆內嫩，淋上Tabasco辣醬，酸辣過癮，配藍芝士醬解膩。八人聚會預兩公斤（約三十二至四十隻雞翼中段），再配合其他食物，分量剛好。 水牛城雞翼以雞翼中段為主，氣炸至金黃酥脆，辣醬由牛油、Tabasco、蜂蜜同白醋調配，帶來層次豐富嘅酸辣甜味，傳統上專為煎炸食物設計，增添香濃辣勁。藍芝士醬涼爽濃郁，完美中和辣度。醬料亦可靈活配搭其他煎炸食物，如淋在炸薯條、雞塊或魚柳上，風味倍增；對於素食人士，可用辣醬搭配氣炸或煎炸的蔬菜（如薯餅或粟米），健康又美味。不用藍芝士，也可用田園沙律醬代替，清新順口，廣受大眾喜愛。 雞翼中段外脆內嫩，Tabasco辣醬帶來衝擊，藍芝士（或田園沙律醬）解膩，秋季聚會必試！ 責任編輯：葉翠華 Source link
