Cooper: What's this? The green and round pie over there?
库伯：这是什么？那边那个绿色的圆圆的派。
Tour guide: Oh, they're not pies. They're called mugwort rice cakes, a very popular snack here.
导游：哦，那可不是派。是艾叶粑粑，这里非常流行的小吃。
Cooper: So, they're made from mugwort?
库伯：这么说，他们是用艾叶做的？
Tour guide: Yes. Mugwort is a nutritious ingredient. It can prevent illness, such as cold and cough. So, many people like to make mugwort rice cakes at home.
导游：是的。艾叶是一种非常有营养的食材，可以预防比如感冒、咳嗽之类的疾病。所以，许多人喜欢在家里自己制作艾叶粑粑。
Cooper: But I heard that mugwort is a little bitter, not tasty.
库伯：但是，我听说艾叶有点儿苦，并不好吃呀。
Tour guide: Yeah, so the first and foremost thing is to immerse the mugwort in clean water for a whole day, in order to remove the bitter flavor.
导游：是的，所以制作艾叶粑粑的第一件事就是将艾叶在清水中浸泡整整一天，这样就可以去除苦味了。
Cooper: Oh, I see. Is it served hot or cold?
库伯：我明白了，那这个粑粑是趁热吃还是凉了以后再吃呢？
Tour guide: Both are ok, but I prefer the cold one. But if it has been cold for a long time, you can re-fry it again.
导游：都可以的，我比较喜欢吃凉的。不过，如果要是凉的时间太久，变得太硬的话，重新煎炸一下就可以了。
Cooper: Wow, fantastic! A mugwort rice cake, cold, please.
库伯：哇，太好啦！给我来一个艾叶粑粑，凉的。
