When the followup was declared the writer Haggis was once more asked to supply
the refined draft of the program.
Hello, i think that i saw you visited my website so i came to “return the favor”.
I’m attempting to find things to enhance my website!I suppose its ok to use some of your ideas!!
HELEN, what parts of pesto ingredients can I freeze?
This was fun. I’ll do it again and learn some more.
Learn something new every day, the problem is remembering it.
I got 45%,not bad for a 70 year old!!!! Really enjoyed it!
Enjoyed that, Helen. Did not do as well I thought I would (70%) but just a bit of fun! Thank you
75% not too bad
I got 40% – not bad for someone who doesn’t know the finer points of cookery and the like :-)
75% haha – who knew about crab festivals and oriface fillers of Africa!?? fun
Thank goodness I am not setting maps for Apple!
Just shows we all have a lot to learn but I will endeavour to make future quizes as tight as possible.
Your positive and constructive feedback is appreciated!
Hi Helen – Love it! I’m a bit of a quizaholic and happy with my 16/20 but I’ve got a few things to point out:
-As Nick pointed out the Beurre Manie (which is also spelled wrong) is wrong
-Mirrin is technically rice wine so the Teriyaki question is a bit dicey
-Lamb is under 1 year, Hogget is a sheep with two teeth and mutton is a sheep with more (generally over 2 years in age I think). Or something along those lines but I’m pretty sure Mutton is generally older than 1 although if you had a very fast developing sheep…?!?!?
– Dolce de Leche is actually Dulce de Leche (it’s spanish – techically south american I think – not Italian).
– A tempering machine is used to temper chocolate which is not technically melting the chocolate properly but cooling it properly.
Not sure whether I’ve helped or just been a huge know-it-all! As they say on Faggle Rock, ‘the trash heap has spoken’
I’ve just been looking up the mutton definitions and I agree, mutton is from a sheep with more than two teeth, and two years is the rule of thumb.
Nothing wrong with being a know-it-all – if someone sets a quiz they should take the trouble to get the facts straight.
Excellent Debbie, thanks so much for your responses which I am looking at and will make changes and then delete this conversation :) Some are my fault and some are gremlins in the survey that I am still understanding – some of my answers seem to have re set themselves somewhere other than where I wanted them.
Buerre manie is spelt right other than the accent which I am trying to work out how to make isn’t it?
I checked spelling of Dolce de leche and it is spelt both ways – the quiz doesn’t say it is Italian…. It just says what is it.
Well I think you are doing an excellent job :)
Still pretty sure it’s Beurre Manie not Buerre Manie though…
Yes you are right of course – I couldn’t see the “ue” reversal even though it was right in front of me…
have changed dolce to dulce – must have been reading designers not sweetened milk :)
I got 75%, but at least one of your answers is wrong. The correct answer to #15 is (b) not (a).
In # 2 there are many variants of five spice powder, but it is extremely unusal for it to contain cumin. The most common combination is star anise, cloves, cinnamon, fennel seeds and Sichuan pepper.
Hi Tpandav, I may reset the 5 spice question as it is getting a bit cloudy. thanks for your feedback.
I feel sorry for you if you spread beurre manie on you toast as given as the correct answer in the quiz!!! Eating a raw mixture of butter and flour is quite distasteful!
Exactly.
Yes you are of course completely right – gremlins at work I think and I am tidying up the problems now. Thanks for pointing it out.
I still have a lot to learn – poor result.
Please don’t be disheartened godmother. This is the first quiz and I honestly have no idea how difficult to pitch it. Let us see what results others get.
Godmother, your poor result may be my errors not your knowledge! Fixing a few things now.
