【过程及感想】
咦，看着不难，一动笔，土家族怎么说?酱香饼怎么表达? 面食 pasta， flour， noodle， paste用哪个? 祖传? 秘制? 精制? 回味无穷?
想半天，既然文中说是中国的披萨，那抖个机灵，Tujia Pizza.
Chinadaily经常在地名后标明所在中国方向，所以我也标上。到底是South China还是Southern China? 待查找。
民间面食大师，???folk wheaten food master 怎么这么别扭，待修改。
祖传秘方， 祖先的秘密菜单，菜单怎么写来? medium? 咦，有什么奇怪的东西混进了了? secret menu.
经查找，recipe要更准确，还有formula 以前只知道公式的意思，它还有配方的意思。secret formula秘方。
祖先的ancestors' ??? 经查找，有个形容词 ancestral祖传的。
提到原料，区分两个词—spice和ingredient
spice香料，源自植物come from plants. 形状powder或seed。 粉状或籽状，有 strong smell and taste. 味重
ingredient. 成分.尤指原料 one of the things from which sth is made. especially one of the foods that are used together to make a paticular dish.
seasoning也是调味品，作料。a substance used to add flavour to food.特指盐和胡椒
refined. ./rɪˈfʌɪnd/精致的
refine 提炼，精致。
unique 和special
unique独一无二的，独特的，唯一的。很强烈的说法，比如大熊猫在中国。
special特别的，但不一定是唯一的。
这是第一次翻的
It has a unique flavor: chunky and tasty , good smell.The old and kids all like it, and suit for a wide range of people. People call it Chinese Pizza.
之前在日报上学过个词，形容黄瓜脆的，crunchy。没记清，学成了chunky.
crunchy 爽脆，firm and crisp and making a sharp sound when you bite or crush it.
crisp 酥脆 pleasantly hard and dry
bake until the pastry is golden and crisp
把油酥糕点烤至金黄酥脆
鲜脆，脆嫩 firm and fresh 水果和蔬菜。
回味无穷不会。 挤出个good smell. 网上查到以下说法:
make your enjoy the endless aftertastes
lead a person to endless aftertastes.
群友参考 endless recall of after taste
感觉太啰嗦。而且牛津词典中aftertaste尤指饮食留在口中不快的余味，苦味。
a taste （usually an unpleasant one）that stays in your mouth after you have eaten or drunk sth.
唇齿留香_有道翻译
the flavor will left in one's mouth and on one's lips for a long time
老少皆宜 suitable for both the old and the young
suitable for people of all ages
benificial to all ages
appropriate for all ages
符合广大消费者的口味
In line with the tastes of consumers
Satisfied most consumers' taste.
conform to sth 与……相吻合 符合，一致
be very much to the taste of the consumers.
be well received by.
二参考及学习
找到一些不错的文章，一篇关于恩施土家族的风土人情介绍，另一篇关于各种饼的翻译。来自复旦外语栏目 复旦大学外文学院硕士研究生 周羽 的见解 让人称赞，他将酱香饼译为 soy-flavored pancake.
修改，将Hubei Province, southern China修改为South China's Hubei province.跟着日报学的。
结尾
：查查查，5个小时，坐在这里。写完这个，费死老劲了，我感觉到智商欠费，不想干翻译了呜呜。但是沉浸式学习忘记饥饿，体验到专注的感觉了。效率有待提高，文章有待进一步完善。
