Catalan to English translations [PRO]
Cooking / Culinary / Dishes on a rather sophisticated menu | | Catalan term or phrase: amanida de cloves al perfum marí amb terrassi de ceps i roca de trufa | This is an item on a fairly sophisticated menu. Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance. |
| | | seafood salad on a shell topped with ceps (see below) and truffles | Explanation:
Cep is a Catalan mushroom. You can leave it as is or use one of the following:
wild mushrooms
Catalan mushrooms
porcini mushrooms
Or to keep the Catalan with a explanation, you can write "cep mushrooms".
As for "amanida de cloves al perfum marí", I'm guessing (as Berni wrote) that it's "seafood salad on a shell" but I think you should ask the client for a description of the dish, specifically what "cloves" refers to, as it could be a shell seafood like clams, mussels... or it could describe whatever this "marine-inspired" salad is served on. It's all a bit vague. Good luck!

I'm not sure about "terrassi". Could this be "terrasse/terrace"... therefore meaning "on a bed of"?? Either way, it's best to get a description of the dish from the client. Let us know. I'm curious! :-) |
