Popcorn from 5,600 years ago has been found in New Mexico, and thousand-year-old popcorn from Chile will even still pop! Many other grains can also be popped, including rice, wheat, and barley, but popcorn is the most popular. In fact, in the United States each American eats about fifty liters of it every year! And the snack’s special place in our hearts is nothing new. Popcorn, which is actually a special variety of maize, was held in high regard among early peoples of the Americas. Painted 1,700-year-old funeral containers found in Mexico, for example, were decorated with images of the god of maize wearing popcorn accessories. But how does this esteemed treat work? The kernel’s thick shell is the reason that popcorn pops. As the popcorn is heated, moisture trapped inside turns to steam and presses outward on the hull. When the pressure inside is about nine times the pressure of the air, the hull bursts, and the starch inside expands. The “popcorn cannons” used in Taiwan rely on this pressure difference to create their explosive treats. 儘管許多「美國的」食物如披薩和漢堡起源於其他國家，但爆米花確實是原產自美洲的食物。在新墨西哥州發現了五千六百年前的爆米花，而智利的千年爆米花甚至還會爆裂！ 許多其他的穀物也會爆裂，包括米、小麥和大麥，但爆米花最受歡迎。事實上，在美國每個美國人每年大約吃掉五十公升的爆米花！而這個零食在我們心中的特殊地位並不是什麼新鮮事。爆米花其實是一種特殊的玉米品種，在早期的美洲民族間具有崇高的地位。例如，在墨西哥發現的一千七百年歷史的彩繪骨灰罈裝飾著穿戴爆米花配飾的玉米神的圖像。 但這個備受尊崇的點心是怎麼作用的呢？玉米粒厚實的殼是爆米花爆裂的原因。爆米花受熱時，裡面的水分變成蒸氣然後向外擠壓外殼。當裡面的壓力是空氣壓力的九倍時，外殼就會爆裂，而裡面的澱粉就會膨脹。台灣所使用的「爆米香機」就是靠這個壓力差來製作會爆開的點心。 1/17 We usually think of popcorn as sweet or salty, but popcorn is gaining a new reputation as a health food. It turns out that without all the added salt, butter, and sugar you might get at a movie theater, popcorn alone is pretty good for you. It’s a whole-grain food packed with vitamins and antioxidants and low in fat and calories. It may even help reduce inflammation and reverse the effects of aging. That being said, popcorn is great with many different added flavorings when you’re in the mood to indulge yourself. Garlic, sesame oil, and soy sauce are tasty topping choices, or you can try adding coconut oil and a little curry powder. For a sweet wintry treat, try mixing in some peppermint and white chocolate. It’s also delicious covered with melted peanut butter and dark chocolate. No matter how you enjoy it, there’s no denying that popcorn is a popular and convenient snack. It’s cheap, easy to make, and delicious. Pick some up the next time you’re at a baseball game, a carnival, or the cinema—or make your own while chilling at home. It’s sure to satisfy your craving for something sweet, salty, or healthy! 我們通常認為爆米花是甜的或鹹的，但爆米花正以健康食物而博得新的名聲。原來少了你可能在電影院買到的添加了鹽、奶油和糖，爆米花本身對你而言相當好。它是富含維他命和抗氧化物的全榖食物，而且脂肪和熱量都很低。它甚至可能幫助消炎和逆轉老化的影響。 儘管如此，當你想要犒賞自己時，爆米花非常適合許多不同的添加調味料。大蒜、芝麻油和醬油都是美味的配料選擇，或是你可以試試添加椰子油和一些咖哩粉。想要來點冬季的甜點，試試混入一些薄荷和白巧克力。淋上融化的花生醬和黑巧克力也很可口。 不管你怎麼享用它，不可否認爆米花是一種受歡迎且方便的點心。它便宜、製作簡單又美味。下次你在棒球比賽、嘉年華會或是戲院時買一些吧——或是在家放鬆時自己做做看。它絕對能滿足你對甜的、鹹的或健康的食物的渴望！

Download or read book Overwhelmed written by Brigid Schulte and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-03-13 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ______________________ 'Too much to do? Stop and read this' - Guardian 'For a fresh take on an eternal dilemma, Overwhelmed is worth a few hours of any busy woman's life – if only to ensure that she doesn't drop off the bottom of her own “To Do” list' - Mail on Sunday ______________________ In her attempts to juggle work and family life, Brigid Schulte has baked cakes until 2 a.m., frantically (but surreptitiously) sent important emails during school trips and then worked long into the night after her children were in bed. Realising she had become someone who constantly burst in late, trailing shoes and schoolbooks and biscuit crumbs, she began to question, like so many of us, whether it is possible to be anything you want to be, have a family and still have time to breathe. So when Schulte met an eminent sociologist who studies time and he told her she enjoyed thirty hours of leisure each week, she thought her head was going to pop off. What followed was a trip down the rabbit hole of busy-ness, a journey to discover why so many of us find it near-impossible to press the 'pause' button on life and what got us here in the first place. Overwhelmed maps the individual, historical, biological and societal stresses that have ripped working mothers' and fathers' leisure to shreds, and asks how it might be possible for us to put the pieces back together. Seeking insights, answers and inspiration, Schulte explores everything from the wiring of the brain and why workplaces are becoming increasingly demanding, to worldwide differences in family policy, how cultural norms shape our experiences at work, our unequal division of labour at home and why it's so hard for everyone – but women especially – to feel they deserve an elusive moment of peace. ______________________ 'Every parent, every caregiver, every person who feels besieged by permanent busyness, must read this book' - Anne-Marie Slaughter, author of Why Women Still Can't Have It All

[Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives.

Download or read book Woman of Interest written by Tracy O'Neill and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2024-06-25 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MOST ANTICIPATED READ and MUST READ OF 2024: The Millions, LitHub, Esquire, BookRiot, Bustle, Vulture, Boston Globe, Brit & Co, Southern Living A National Book Foundation’s 5 Under 35 honoree delivers her first work of nonfiction: a compulsively readable, genre-bending story of finding her missing birth mother and, along the way, learning the priceless power of self-knowledge. In 2020, Tracy O’Neill began to rethink her ideas of comfort and safety. Just out of a ten-year relationship and thirtysomething, she was driven by an acute awareness that the mysterious mother she’d never met might be dying somewhere in South Korea. After contacting a grizzled private investigator, O’Neill took his suggested homework to heart when he disappeared before the job was done, picking up the trail of clues and becoming her own hell-bent detective. Despite COVID-19, the promise of what she might discover—the possibility that her biological mother was her kind of outlaw, whose life could inspire her own—was too tempting. Written like a mystery novel, Woman of Interest is a tale of self-discovery and fugitivity from convention that features a femme fatale of unique proportions, a former CIA operative with a criminal record, and a dogged investigator of radical connections outside the nuclear family. O’Neill gorgeously bends the detective genre to her own will as a writer, stepping out of the shadows of her own self-conception to illuminate the hopes of the woman of interest she is both chasing and becoming.
