Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. First things first. Which of the following things is the first you should do before handling any food?

Answer: Wash your hands

You should always wash your hands before handling any food, even if they look clean. Germs and bacteria are so small we can't see them but if they get into what we are cooking they can make you or someone else very sick.

2. For breakfast you and your parent have decided to make a western omelet. What kind of meat goes into a traditional western omelet?

Answer: Ham

A western omelet is eggs, milk, green pepper, onion and ham.

3. It's Thanksgiving and your parent is basting the turkey as you help make the pumpkin pie. What does basting mean?

Answer: To moisten with a liquid

Basting the turkey will help keep it from drying out.

4. You are helping to make some strawberry gelatin. After it is all mixed where would you put it until it is ready to eat?

Answer: In the refrigerator

The gelatin needs time to set in the cold refrigerator before you can eat it.

5. Oh goodness, you are home sick today with a cold. Luckily, you helped make some chicken soup yesterday. What is the liquid in the soup called?

Answer: Broth

The broth is made as the chicken simmers and the juices mix with the water.

6. You are helping make some macaroni cheese. What would you add to the pasta, aside from cheese, to make sure it is nice and creamy?

Answer: Milk

The milk will also help the cheese to more evenly cover all the pasta.

7. The cake batter you have helped make is all ready. What would you put in the bottom of the cake pan to keep the cake from sticking to it as it bakes?

Answer: Butter or shortening

The butter or shortening will melt in the hot oven which will make the bottom and the sides of the cake pans slippery so the cake will come right out.

8. The recipe you and your mother are using says to preheat the oven. What does preheat mean?

Answer: To get the oven hot before putting in the food

If you preheat the oven, your food will take less time to cook because the oven will already be at the proper temperature when the food is put in.

9. Today for lunch you are going to help make some grilled cheese sandwiches. What would you melt in the bottom of the frying pan so that the bread gets nice and toasted?

Answer: Butter

Butter will make the bread turn a nice light brown. Be careful though, if you cook it too long the sandwiches will come out black and burnt.

10. You are at the grocery store shopping for ingredients to make French bread. Which of these things should you make sure to buy if you want your bread to rise?

Answer: Yeast

Yeast is a plant that feeds on sugars. It produces 2 things: alcohol and the gas carbon dioxide. Cooking destroys the alcohol and kills the yeast. But the bubbles are left behind, and that's why bread rises and is soft.
