From the Kitchen
Ten questions on ingredients, origins and the small transformations that make food work, each with the story behind it.
About this topic
Most of us cook or eat things daily without knowing what they are made of or where the name came from. This quiz covers exactly that: the plant behind chocolate, the flower behind the world's costliest spice, the process that turns juice into wine. It moves across cuisines rather than settling in one, because the history of food is mostly a history of ingredients travelling. The explanations add the origin and the method, which tends to make the dish easier to remember and easier to cook.
