We're gonna make simple pasta and that starts with roasting cherry tomatoes.
我们今天做简单的意大利面,首先要把圣女果烤一下。
Arrange your tomatoes in a sound wave formation, then give the old counter a pounder.
把圣女果摆成声波的形状,然后在料理台上猛地一敲。
Mix those in a bowl with some OOS and PPP, then give that a good spang jangle.

Be careful not to mistake this for a bowl of cereal.
注意别把它当成麦片直接吃了。
Spread those on a parchment papered pan, then drink the excess oil with a colorful straw.

Now we're gonna take some spaghettini.
拿出小意大利面。
It's called spaghettini because it's teeny, teeny, tiny, tiny, little...oh I apologize.
我叫它小意大利面,因为它就是很小很细的一丁点...对不起。
So you're gonna want to salt the water, making sure it doesn't get too much hotter than the temperature of boiling.
然后水里加入盐,确保水不要超过煮沸的温度。
And then you want to cook this "al dente", which means "broken teeth" in French. In other words slightly firm.

Now you can wash your greens and then throw them in your salad spinner.

If you don't have a salad spinner, put them in your colander and tape a layer of foil on top.

Then tie a string around the handle and recklessly swing it around your head until the lettuce is dry.
在把手处栓一根绳子,拎起来在空中疯狂地摆来摆去,直到生菜上的水干掉。
Now we'll just open up this Jiffy Pop and dump it in there.

The cucumber isn't just a vegetable.
黄瓜可不只是蔬菜。
It's an incredible opportunity to send your date a subliminal message. Write a nice compliment, like

Now it definitely, definitely can't happen because how would you ever explain that? That's really messed up! Why did you do that?
现在你俩绝对、绝对不能成了,因为你怎么解释这个纹身?简直乱七八糟,你干嘛这样干?
When you're serving the meal, try to make it look good on the plate.
把菜端上去的时候,要注意摆盘美观。
If they ask what it is, just say it's some Mediterranean thing you whipped up
要是他们问你这是什么,就说是你随便做的一些地中海菜式。
It doesn't matter if it's actually Mediterranean, the important thing is that you're using a six syllable word which will make you sound really intelligentable.
是不是地中海的不重要,重要的是要说一个六音节单词,这会让你听起来智商很高的样子。
Now it's normal to be nervous, pits sweaty, can't speak, spaghettini's on the table already.
现在意大利面上桌了,如果感到紧张、腋下出汗、语无伦次是完全正常的。
That's why you should prepare a poster of inspirational sayings to give you a boost of confidence at any point during your date.
