冰淇淋的起源可以追溯到西元前4世紀,也就是羅馬國王尼諾 (Nero) 下令從高山上帶回雪冰,並且與新鮮水果搭配在一起。在13世紀的時候,馬可‧波羅知道中國有一種將冰與牛奶混和在一起的製作方式,於是將這種方法帶回歐洲。隨著時間演變,人們開始創造出更多有關冰塊、雪泥、,以及牛奶冰的食譜。那也成為在義大利與法國的一種流行的食物,其中有些還進口到美國。包括喬治‧華盛頓、湯瑪士‧傑佛遜,以及朵利‧麥迪遜等人都曾吃過冰淇淋。傑佛遜最喜歡的是香草口味的冰淇淋。你呢?


The origins of ice cream go way back to the 4th century B.C. when the Roman emperor Nero ordered ice to be brought from the mountains and combined it with fruit toppings. In the 13th century, Marco Polo learned of the Chinese method of creating ice and milk mixtures and brought it back to Europe. Over time, people created recipes for ices, sherbets, and milk ices. It became a fashionable treat in Italy and France, and once imported to the United States, ice cream was served by George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Dolley Madison. Jefferson's favorite flavor was vanilla. What's yours?
