🦃美國感恩節餐盤系列之【火雞】知多少
每年11月的第四個星期四是美國的感恩節，感恩節這天是親朋好友相聚共享傳統美食，對生活中美好事物表達感謝的重要節日。感恩節的起源可以追溯至1621年在美國麻州舉行的三天三夜豐收慶典，當地萬帕諾格部落的印地安人教英國移民如何種植美洲作物、打獵及捕魚，而英國移民則準備豐盛野火雞、玉米、綠色蔬菜和乾果宴請印地安人。
今天，火雞仍然是美國感恩節晚餐的經典菜色，AIT也準備了一些有趣的火雞小常識來跟台灣朋友們分享這項傳統！
✅美國是世界上最大的火雞生產國和出口國，也是火雞人均消費量最高的國家。
✅明尼蘇達州是美國火雞產量最高的州。
✅在美國，每年約有2,000家獨立農場飼養將近2.5億隻火雞。
✅ 美國開國元勛班傑明．富蘭克林將火雞稱為「美國真正的原住民」，並認為火雞是種「勇猛無畏的鳥類」。
✅自1870年代以來，火雞都會被當成禮物送給美國總統。

🦃【America’s Thanksgiving Table #1 TURKEY】
Celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November, Thanksgiving in the United States is a time to gather with family and friends, share a traditional meal and express gratitude for the good things in life. Thanksgiving traces its origins to a three-day harvest celebration held in 1621 in what is now Massachusetts. Local Wampanoag Indians taught English settlers how to survive by growing native crops, hunting and fishing. The settlers invited the Wampanoag to feast on wild turkeys, corn, green vegetables, and dried fruits.
To date, turkey is still the main course at a typical American Thanksgiving dinner. AIT has prepared some fun facts about Turkey to introduce this Thanksgiving tradition with Taiwan friends!
✅The United States is the world’s largest turkey producer, exporter, and per capita consumer of turkey.
✅Minnesota is the top U.S. turkey producing state
✅Each year, about 250 million turkeys are raised on about 2,000 independent farms across the United States.
✅ U.S. Founding Father Benjamin Franklin called the turkey a “true original native of America” and believed the turkey to be a “bird of great courage.”
✅Turkeys have been sent to the White House as gifts to the American President since the 1870s.
