Lesson 58

QuestionAnswer
since
s obzirom na to da
to knead
mijesiti
dough
tijesto
Since it is Saturday, I knead dough for bread in the morning.
S obzirom na to da je subota, ujutro mijesim tijesto za kruh.
flour
brašno
yeast
kvasac
I put flour, water, and a little yeast into the bowl.
U zdjelu stavljam brašno, vodu i malo kvasca.
soft
mekan
The pillow is soft, so I sleep better.
Jastuk je mekan, pa bolje spavam.
to leave
ostavljati
I always leave the keys in the drawer in the hallway.
Uvijek ostavljam ključeve u ladici u hodniku.
to rise
narasti
If the price of fuel rises again, we will rather go to the city by bus.
Ako cijena goriva opet naraste, radije ćemo ići autobusom u grad.
When the dough is soft, I leave it on the table to rise.
Kad je tijesto mekano, ostavljam ga na stolu da naraste.
to beat
umutiti
Before you add the flour, beat the eggs.
Prije nego što dodaš brašno, umuti jaja.
mixer
mikser
My sister prefers to beat the eggs with a mixer rather than by hand.
Moja sestra radije umuti jaja mikserom nego ručno.
to relax
opustiti se
After work I will relax in the garden.
Poslije posla ću se opustiti u vrtu.
I prefer kneading dough with my hands, because it helps me relax.
Ja radije mijesim tijesto rukama, jer mi to pomaže da se opustim.
tin
kalup
Since we do not have much time, we will bake the cake in a small tin.
S obzirom na to da nemamo puno vremena, kolač ćemo peći u malom kalupu.
If you add too much yeast, the bread will have a strange taste.
Ako dodaš previše kvasca, kruh će imati čudan okus.
to serve
poslužiti
pancake
palačinka
blueberry
borovnica
When the guests come, we will serve them pancakes with blueberries.
Kad dođu gosti, poslužit ćemo im palačinke s borovnicama.
raspberry
malina
cream
vrhnje
My grandmother makes the best pancakes with raspberries and a little cream.
Moja baka pravi najbolje palačinke s malinama i malo vrhnja.
Since blueberries are cheap today, I will buy another half kilo.
S obzirom na to da su borovnice danas jeftine, kupit ću ih još pola kilograma.
Raspberries are less sweet than blueberries, but I prefer them with pancakes.
Maline su manje slatke od borovnica, ali meni su draže uz palačinke.
mushroom
gljiva
pea
grašak
For lunch I will cook mushrooms, peas, and a little rice.
Za ručak ću skuhati gljive, grašak i malo riže.
parsley
peršin
I add cream and a little parsley to the mushroom sauce.
U umak od gljiva dodajem vrhnje i malo peršina.
sausage
kobasica
bacon
slanina
Since my brother does not like meat every day, today there will be no sausages or bacon.
S obzirom na to da moj brat ne voli meso svaki dan, danas neće biti kobasica ni slanine.
Still, my father says that breakfast without bacon and eggs is not a real breakfast.
Ipak, moj otac kaže da doručak bez slanine i jaja nije pravi doručak.
When I cook peas in a pot, I always add a little parsley and salt.
Kad u loncu kuham grašak, uvijek dodam malo peršina i soli.
to taste
kušati
If you want, I can taste the sauce before you serve it.
Ako hoćeš, mogu kušati umak prije nego što ga poslužiš.
vinegar
ocat
Could you taste the soup and tell me whether it needs more vinegar?
Možete li kušati juhu i reći mi treba li još octa?
I put a little vinegar, oil, and salt in the cabbage salad.
U salatu od kupusa stavljam malo octa, ulja i soli.
freezer
zamrzivač
In the freezer we have peas and one bag of mushrooms for tomorrow.
U zamrzivaču imamo grašak i jednu vrećicu gljiva za sutra.
to defrost
odmrznuti
I have to defrost the chicken before dinner, because it is still in the freezer.
Moram odmrznuti piletinu prije večere, jer je još u zamrzivaču.
If I forget to defrost the vegetables, dinner will be late.
Ako zaboravim odmrznuti povrće, večera će kasniti.
oven
peć
Tonight I am baking bread in the oven.
Večeras pečem kruh u peći.
In the new oven, the bread is ready faster than in the old one.
U novoj peći kruh je gotov brže nego u staroj.
to whip
umutiti
For pancakes, I first beat the eggs, and then add flour.
Za palačinke prvo umutim jaja, a onda dodam brašno.
If the mixer does not work, I will whip the cream by hand.
Ako mikser ne radi, umutit ću vrhnje ručno.
This tin is smaller than the one I usually use.
Ovaj kalup je manji od onoga koji obično koristim.
My aunt will serve the soup tomorrow, and I will bring the salad and bread.
Moja teta će sutra poslužiti juhu, a ja ću donijeti salatu i kruh.
When we have more time, we will also make sausages for winter.
Kad budemo imali više vremena, napravit ćemo i kobasice za zimu.
I bought fresh flour at the market, so tonight I will knead dough again.
Na tržnici sam kupila svježe brašno, pa ću večeras opet mijesiti tijesto.
All we still need is a quiet kitchen, a little patience, and a good recipe.
Sve što nam još treba jesu mirna kuhinja, malo strpljenja i dobar recept.
