為愛走天涯的善良女人,用心烹料理的認真母親 -專訪加華月子餐負責人 Elaine
9 hours ago 媽媽, 月子 Leave a comment
台灣月子餐遠近馳名,就連多倫多的華人圈在短期內已有數家大大小小的月子餐提供,在一個風和日麗的早晨,我與加華月子餐的負責人Elaine有了一段美好的時光,浸淫在料理的芬芳美味,我們進行了一場色香味俱全的訪問。
甫一進門,迎接我的是Elaine的先生,笑容可掬又真誠,帶我來到他們一起努力的小天地。接著就聽見Elaine與助手Jessie歡樂的笑聲充斥廚房,撲鼻的食物香氣迎面而來。Elaine穿著圍裙不忘給我一個大大的擁抱,此時餐桌上已經擺滿七八道的月子餐。Elaine說,她就是這樣開始每一天,準備客戶每一天所需要的營養餐點,每一口都有Elaine的愛在其中。
“如果不是為了滿足老公刁鑽的嘴,我也不會如此嚴格要求自己”
Elaine笑著說,眼裡還有對先生甜蜜的愛意,迄今成立月子餐不過兩年,先生對Elaine的支持與讚美,是Elaine越做越快樂,越做越開心的最大支持。當初Elaine在中國也是世界五百強企業的品管主管,一日嫁做人婦,洗手作羹湯就是她心甘情願地奉獻,卸下脂粉的Elaine有著美麗的臉龐與嬌羞的神情,她告訴我,能夠讓先生每天吃到幸福的手藝,就是她最開心的事。
“無心插柳的朋友鼓勵,讓她激起更多的愛心去照顧辛苦的孕婦與媽媽”
因為一次義務性幫忙,Elaine的朋友不僅對她感謝有加,無微不至的關懷以及營養滿點的月子餐,讓朋友對她豎起了大拇指,”何不試試看經營月子中心與月子餐呢?”於是那小小的願望萌發成一個造福母親的職志。以台灣的廣和月子餐為基底,Elaine再根據中國不同背景文化的媽媽胃口酌量調整,輔以中醫師專家背書,所以才有今天的加華月子餐。
“吃過後在心裡留下什麼樣的感覺才是最重要的價值”
先簡單介紹一下月子餐內容吧,主餐有養生排毒紅糙米飯,青菜則是補血養肝綠菠佐紅杞,肉類補充蛋白質的有紅燒雞翅佐天津栗子,富含DHA的香煎三文魚佐楓糖。讓人食指大動的甜品有潤肺滋陰紫銀甜羹,日式山藥泥佐紫薯,南洋風情紅豆糕佐核桃片,台式低糖去水腫紅豆湯以及金黃粒粒南瓜羹。此外一些其他的配菜有營養蛋餅佐紅茄,翠綠西蘭佐靈芝,青玉蘆筍,並配有香菇烏骨雞湯與生化湯為產婦補充體力。
◎由左至右分別為:南洋風情紅豆糕佐核桃片、烏骨雞湯佐紅棗以及潤肺滋陰紫銀甜羹。
◎由左至右分別為:日式山藥泥佐紫薯,營養蛋餅佐紅茄與金黃粒粒南瓜羹。
◎點心水果大集合!
◎淡雅口味恬靜坐月。
能有幸親自吃到這些美味食材的產婦們真是有福了。我因工作之便也能淺嚐一二即知Elaine在烹飪上的細心。此外Elaine為人謙遜有禮,我看著她與助手的互動非常融洽與歡樂,難怪在她的料理中可以吃出讓人喜悅的心情。
◎大廚有約。
看著Elaine,我想我能理解她所提供的,不是商品,而是真心。

Nonetheless, the law is worth celebrating. It sets a bar in shark conservation and protection measures, especially for poorer countries. Of all the places on both of the above lists, only the EU and Ecuador are as aggressive. Plus, with big shark-fishing countries like India, the United Kingdom, France, Portugal and Spain now requiring fins attached, 22.3% of the world’s shark catch is pretty much guaranteed to be humaneâand last year, that percentage was zero.
TB is a treatable bacterial disease usually spread by coughing or sneezing - but young children don't cough strongly enough to pass on the bacteria. It is the second-leading killer among infectious diseases after AIDS.
