Question 3 of 10
3. Ivonna Eet smiles slyly. "I've made quite a terrible pun in this next work of art. Instead of a certain type of wire used on fences, I have a vegetable! It might not be the most effective means of keeping people out, but it might be the most delicious!"

What vegetable often used in pies and other desserts is shown?
Hint


Question 4 of 10
4. "The 'de marisco' version of this Valencian rice dish uses these ingredients," Ivonna says, as though she had lived there for many years. "The spice from this flowering plant is one of the most delicious, but also the most expensive in the world by weight. You take the yin with the yang."

What dish is portrayed here?
Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. "This next artwork is an unusual salad that my mother made for me when I was young," Ivonna admits. "It's called 'woodtick salad' because of the tree-like vegetables and small kernels which are the 'woodticks'."

What ingredients is she referring to in this oddly named salad?
Hint


Question 6 of 10
6. "Why just look at this little poblano," Ivonna remarks a bit unseriously. "He is simply stuffing himself full of cheese. This piece represents the folly of modern gluttony. Or a popular Mexican dish, you can decide which."

Which Mexican dish might the image depict if not the folly of modern gluttony?
Hint


Question 7 of 10
7. "Bon appétit, my friends. This next artwork has 'aubergine', 'courgette', 'ail', 'tomate', 'oignon', and even 'poivron'. Looks like a winner to me!"

What dish is it?
Hint


Question 8 of 10
8. "Dull, dull. Sometimes art is dull. Like the color of this photo. But the North Indian dish that this artwork represents is so full of flavor and color from spices like cayenne and turmeric that it is anything but dull."

What dish with a color found in its name is shown?
Hint


Question 9 of 10
9. "It is quite fitting that this piece features alphabet pasta," Ivonna states, "because the dish I had in mind is a soup with noodles. This piece tries to convey how it should be properly pronounced."

Can you guess which Vietnamese dish it is?
Hint


Question 10 of 10
10. "Why these little pancakes represent the sun by the early Slavic peoples, so I thought I would celebrate Maslenitsa, which is also known as Pancake Week! During the holiday, the Eastern Slavic people eat many thousands of these lovely little suns."

What Slavic food is she talking about?
Hint

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "Hello, dahlings," the very strange Ivonna Eet greets the tour group. "Welcome to my gallery. Here is my first artwork which contains a dessert originally created in New Orleans, Louisiana, by a man named Paul Blangé." What delicious dessert using the ingredients pictured is often served table-side as a flambé?

Answer: Bananas Foster

Bananas Foster also includes a sauce made from butter, cinnamon and brown sugar. Dark rum is added to the bananas and sauce and burned off. The remaining mixture is placed on top of vanilla ice cream.

The dessert was named after a man named Richard Foster, a friend of famed New Orleans chef Owen Brennan, whose chef, Paul Blangé, invented the dish.
2. "As you can see here, we have a bit of a love affair," Ivonna says, "and below you will find what can be made when the lovers are paired." What picnic food from the U.K. is depicted?

Answer: Scotch egg

Scotch eggs are hard-boiled eggs which are wrapped in sausage meat and then baked. It is common in the U.K. for one to bring these delicacies when going picnicking.

The origins of Scotch eggs are thought to be inspired by the Middle Eastern/Indian dish "narcissus kofta", which is a type of seasoned meatball with an egg encased inside.
3. Ivonna Eet smiles slyly. "I've made quite a terrible pun in this next work of art. Instead of a certain type of wire used on fences, I have a vegetable! It might not be the most effective means of keeping people out, but it might be the most delicious!" What vegetable often used in pies and other desserts is shown?

Answer: Rhubarb

Rhubarb is bitter in taste, which allows to balance out other flavors, especially in desserts. Of course the pun is on "barbed wire", which often tops wire fences in attempt to deter unwanted criminals from gaining access to grounds. "Rhubarbed wire", perhaps?
4. "The 'de marisco' version of this Valencian rice dish uses these ingredients," Ivonna says, as though she had lived there for many years. "The spice from this flowering plant is one of the most delicious, but also the most expensive in the world by weight. You take the yin with the yang." What dish is portrayed here?

Answer: Paella

"Paella de marisco" is a take on traditional Valencian paella, which was made with land animals as opposed to seafood. Those Valencians living on the shore adapted the original recipe to use shrimp and other animals from the sea.

Paella wouldn't be complete without saffron, which is picked tediously from the plant. Due to the difficult nature of collection, saffron has long been one of the most expensive spices in the world.
5. "This next artwork is an unusual salad that my mother made for me when I was young," Ivonna admits. "It's called 'woodtick salad' because of the tree-like vegetables and small kernels which are the 'woodticks'." What ingredients is she referring to in this oddly named salad?

Answer: broccoli and sunflower seeds

Woodtick salad is a rather unusual salad in that the ingredients represent other items, namely broccoli representing trees and sunflower seeds representing woodticks. Who would want to eat a salad full of fake bugs?!

Add some mayonnaise, onions, and sometimes bacon, and you can start eating woodticks.
6. "Why just look at this little poblano," Ivonna remarks a bit unseriously. "He is simply stuffing himself full of cheese. This piece represents the folly of modern gluttony. Or a popular Mexican dish, you can decide which." Which Mexican dish might the image depict if not the folly of modern gluttony?

Answer: Chile relleno

"Chile relleno" or "stuffed chile" consists of poblano chile peppers stuffed with melted cheese and occasionally diced meat. Typically, however, the peppers don't stuff themselves!

Sometimes other peppers can be used including Anaheim peppers and jalapeños. Many different types of queso are also acceptable, though Mexican cheeses such as queso Chihuahua and queso Oaxaca are especially popular.
7. "Bon appétit, my friends. This next artwork has 'aubergine', 'courgette', 'ail', 'tomate', 'oignon', and even 'poivron'. Looks like a winner to me!" What dish is it?

Answer: Ratatouille

Ratatouille originates from the Provence region of France, and is generally safe for vegetarians. Though ratatouille was traditionally served as a side dish in the past, it is now very common to serve it as a dish on its own. The vegetables listed in the question are: eggplant, zucchini, garlic, tomato, onion, and bell pepper.
8. "Dull, dull. Sometimes art is dull. Like the color of this photo. But the North Indian dish that this artwork represents is so full of flavor and color from spices like cayenne and turmeric that it is anything but dull." What dish with a color found in its name is shown?

Answer: Tandoori chicken

Tandoori chicken is a spicy chicken dish from North India flavored with chili powder and other spices, making it a colorful red or orange, unlike the boring tan hidden within its name. Its name comes from its style of preparation in which it is cooked in a tandoor, a clay oven often used in Asia.
9. "It is quite fitting that this piece features alphabet pasta," Ivonna states, "because the dish I had in mind is a soup with noodles. This piece tries to convey how it should be properly pronounced." Can you guess which Vietnamese dish it is?

Answer: Pho

Pho became increasingly common in Western nations when Vietnamese refugees began to bring their cuisines to these countries during the Vietnam War. It is popularly served as street food, with the simple ingredients of noodles, meat, broth, and herbs.
10. "Why these little pancakes represent the sun by the early Slavic peoples, so I thought I would celebrate Maslenitsa, which is also known as Pancake Week! During the holiday, the Eastern Slavic people eat many thousands of these lovely little suns." What Slavic food is she talking about?

Answer: Blini

Blini are popular in Russia and Eastern Europe, and their consumption on Maslenitsa was adopted by the Orthodox Church. Their round shape reminded early Slavic peoples of the sun. Now they are often used in desserts!
