Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Mettbrotchen: Raw pork on a roll with onion slices

Answer: Germany

Mett is a Germany delicacy of raw minced pork, which is often purchased from the butcher already spiced with salt and pepper, and perhaps garlic and caraway. A fresh German roll is topped with this mett and garnished with slices of raw onion. Mettwock is a German custom of savoring this dish on Wednesday.
2. Pao de Deus: Sweet bread topped with desiccated coconut and eggs

Answer: Portugal

This sweet roll dough is usually flavored with lemon zest, rum, or vanilla. It is topped with a mixture of desiccated coconut and eggs and baked until golden. They are often enjoyed for breakfast and are also associated with an old Portugese custom called pao-por-deus. This is where children knock on doors, recite poetry, and ask for candy and sweets such as the pao de Deus.
3. Boxty: Potatoes and buttermilk in the form of pancakes

Answer: Ireland

Boxty is a traditional Irish potato pancake and has been a staple food in Ireland since the 1700's. While it is most often fried in pancake form, it can also be baked in a loaf pan and sliced. It is eaten all year and also traditionally served on St. Brigid's Day.

There is even an old rhyme about this food. "Boxty on the griddle; boxty on the pan. If you can't make boxty, you'll never get a man!"
4. Bougatsa: Phyllo pastry layered with custard, meat, or cheese

Answer: Greece

Bougatsa is a traditional Greek breakfast pastry and is especially popular in the northern parts of the country. Bakers each have their own method of making the phyllo dough and it is spread out by hand until it is almost transparent. It is then filled with custard cream (sometimes cooked meat or spinach instead) and baked.

The bougatsa is cut into squares and served with a strong coffee.
5. Popara: Bread mashed with liquid

Answer: Serbia

Popara is a very old dish from Serbia that was a quick and easy way to use leftover bread and also to feed the entire family. Bread is ripped up or diced and then hot liquid (water, milk, or tea) is poured over it until the bread absorbs the moisture. It can be served in this state or can have cheese added for a more savory dish or sugar added for a sweeter taste.
6. Churros: Deep fried dough strips sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar

Answer: Spain

These treats were originally invented by Spanish shepherds who could cook them quickly over an open fire. Today churros are still found in Spain and in many Latin American countries. Dough is piped, in the shape of small ropes, into hot oil. It is then fried until golden brown and rolled in a cinnamon sugar mixture. They can be enjoyed with a side of chocolate dipping sauce.
7. Kippers: Smoked herring

Answer: England

A kipper is a whole herring that has been sliced in half from head to tail, gutted, salted, then smoked. This process is called "kippering". Kippers are a quintessential British breakfast food and have been highly enjoyed since the Victorian era. The kippers can be poached in a pan or, in a more traditional method, in a covered jug.

They are frequently served with scrambled or poached eggs.
8. Croque Madame: Ham and cheese sandwich topped with egg

Answer: France

A croque madame is a sandwich made with ham slices, bechamel sauce, and gruyere cheese. It is then baked or broiled and a fried egg placed on the top. This dish goes back to the early 1900's in Paris. Without the egg on top, it is called a croque monsieur and, because the egg resembles a woman's hat, it becomes a croque madame when that ingredient is added.
9. Biscotti: Hard almond flavored cookie or biscuit

Answer: Italy

The first biscotti were created in 14th century Tuscany and were made from almonds, which were plentiful. They are made of a simple dough, formed into logs, baked, cooled, and baked again. This second baking draws out much of the moisture and makes the dough hard and sturdy and easy to store. Biscotti can have a variety of fillings and flavors including dried fruit, nuts, chocolate, and spices.

These treats can be dipped into milk or coffee for a quick breakfast.
10. Muesli: Cold oatmeal with fruits and nuts

Answer: Switzerland

A Swiss doctor invented muesli in the 1920s in response to his patients' needs for healthier food. He called for several apples, including skin and core, mixed with oats and nuts. Muesli is still a popular dish and is prepared using oats which have been soaked in water or juice or milk for several hours. To this can be added fruit, yogurt, nuts, honey, or syrup.
