PART 9 Mushrooms and Food
Every human being wishes to remain healthy, to be able to work cheerfully and to enjoy life to its fullest extent. A primary source of inputs for health support comes from food. Since times immemorial, many mushrooms have been highly valued as food, to satisfy hunger; as condiments, to enrich the flavour of other food, and also as supplements, to help maintain good health. The value of mushrooms has become even more popularized in recent decades, as can be witnessed by the significantly increased demands, for higher production volumes, of many edible mushrooms, both on local and international markets.
第九部分 蘑菇和食品
每个人希望保持健康,能够愉快地工作,最大限度地享受生活。健康的基础就是食物。自远古时代起,许多蘑菇作为食品充饥就受到高度重视;蘑菇也作为调味品,以丰富其它食品的风味,并作为保健品强身健体。蘑菇的这些价值在最近的几十年中变得更加普及,无论是国内市场还是国际市场,蘑菇的需求显着增加了,促进了生产的快速发展。
Mushrooms Science: Production of Mushrooms for Food. Mushroom science is the discipline that addresses the principles and practice of mushroom cultivations. These principles are based on fact that have been established through systematic investigations of the practical aspects of mushroom cultivation, as well as through basic science studies. These two approaches provide both the practical experience, and an understanding of the fundamentals sequential for maintaining consistently successful mushroom crops.
蘑菇科学:蘑菇是食品。蘑菇科学讨论栽培蘑菇的原理和实践。原理来源于栽培实践和基础理论研究。理论和实践保证了蘑菇栽培产业能持续发展的基础。
Throughout recorded history, mankind has cherished the desirable flavours, acknowledged the nutritional value, and recognized the medicinal and tonic properties of mushrooms. Mushrooms were regarded by the early civilizations of Egypt and Roma as a special delicacy, and perceived by the latter as the "food of the gods". A clear indication of the high esteem in which mushrooms were held by various cultures, is provided by the practice of restricting the use and the consumption of many species of mushrooms to the Kings of the time.
在历史上,人类早已知道蘑菇的美味、营养价值、药用价值和补品功能。埃及和罗马早期文明视蘑菇为一种特殊的美味佳肴,在罗马更将蘑菇视为“上帝的食物”。历史上不少地方流传着这样的传说,只有国王皇帝才能享受蘑菇美味。
The medicinal and analeptic qualities of mushrooms, the scientific bases for which we are only just beginning to understand, have long been appreciated by the people of China. Legend states that Chinese Emperors consumed lentinus edodes in large quantities to fend off old age. Other accounts tell us that ancient Japanese courts valued these mushrooms for their aphrodisiac properties (watch this!). "The growth habitats of the treasured mushrooms were kept as secrets, and heavily guarded".
蘑菇药物和兴奋剂的功能,长期以来在中国一直受到推崇, 尽管其中的科学依据需要进一步探讨。传说指出,中国的皇帝为了延年益寿,大量食用香菇。其他记载告诉我们,日本古代官廷重视蘑菇的催情的特性, 故“珍贵蘑菇生长的地方严格保密,戒备森严”。 |
