Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "Woman! I want a soup that's popular in Mexico and made with tripe!" What soup does my husband crave?

Answer: menudo

"Tripe" is stomach. Menudo is widely regarded as a great hangover cure.

2. "Woman! I want a cold soup made from beetroot!" What does my husband want now?

Answer: borscht

Borscht is popular in Eastern and Central Europe. It is also sometimes served warm or based with tomato instead of beet.

3. "Woman! I didn't like that soup! Bring me a cold French one with leeks, potatoes, and chicken stock instead!" What dish should I bring to him?

Answer: vichyssoise

Vichyssoise is basically the same soup as Potage Parmentier, except the latter is served warm. Credit for the recipe is sometimes given to chef Louis Diat and sometimes to Jules Gouffe.

4. "Woman! I want a soup made from pasta and vegetables! Make it one that is from the island of Corfu in Greece!" What soup should I fetch now?

Answer: Bourou-Bourou

Recipes for this soup actually call for you to use whatever vegetables you have on hand. Red hot peppers largely influence the flavor of this dish.

5. "Woman! You're not done yet! I'm just getting started! Bring me a Scottish soup made with barley and beef, lamb, or mutton!" NOW what should I bring my hungry hubby?

Answer: Scotch broth

Other ingredients are root vegetables, like turnips, and greens, like cabbage. This soup needs to be cooked for at least 4-5 hours, so my husband is going to have to wait for his next sampling!

Answer: Solyanka

Solyanka can be made with meat (like beef, ham, or sausage), crayfish, or mushrooms as the main ingredient. Olives are frequently added to the soup for another dimension of flavor.

7. "Woman! Bring me a soup made famous in Charleston, South Carolina! I want something creamy and crabby--like me!" Sheesh! What am I cooking up now?

Answer: She-crab soup

She-crab soup is made from blue crab meat and crab roe. It was reportedly the favorite soup of comedian Soupy Sales.

8. "Woman! I'm in the mood for Chinese soup now! Go find a soup that only a cave swift can help you make!" Oh no! What soup am I going to go through a lot of trouble to make?

Answer: bird's nest soup

Cave swifts build edible nests out of their own saliva. It takes a male swiftlet 35 days to build a nest. This soup is rare, indeed!

9. "Woman! You take too long to cook! Run over to Olive Garden and get me some Italian soup made with vegetables and pasta or rice." What popular soup am I heading out to get?

Answer: minestrone soup

"Minestrone" translates into English as "the big soup". It can be made from whatever vegetables are in season.

10. "Woman! Get me one more soup! I want something from Trinidad and Tobago! It should feature amaranth or taro!" What's the last soup I should get before I completely lost my patience?

Answer: callaloo

If you're making this soup outside of the Caribbean, you may have to use spinach. It was allegedly created from a blend of African slave traditions and island flavors.
