Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. This diminutive but charismatic blonde with the last name Moulton has appeared on Food Network, but she can also be seen on public television. She has some cooking "secrets" she would like to share with us. What is her program called?

Answer: Sara's Secrets

When the series "Sara's Secrets" came to an end, she began another series, "Sara's Weeknight Meals".

Sara's guest chefs often tower over her in height, to hilarious effect. But she and her guest always team up to make creative, delicious dishes.
2. Many cooking program hosts travel far and wide to experience and teach us about regional cuisine. Visiting such regions as Maremma, Liguria, and Lazio, Lidia Bastianich is one of these "traveling chefs". What is the name of Lidia's program?

Answer: Lidia's Italy

Lidia's signature sign-off for the end of every episode is "Tutti a tavola a mangiare!" ("Everyone (come) to the table to eat!")
3. Rick Bayless is a friendly, bespectacled fellow with a seemingly boundless enthusiasm for the authentic cuisine of a particular part of the world. Some episode titles from his series's seventh season are: "Guac on the Wild Side," "Salsas that Cook," and "Chorizo Made Easy." So, what does Rick call his series?

Answer: Mexico -- One Plate at a Time

Re-creating authentic regional cuisine involves painstaking research, careful planning, dedication, practice, and passion, but the out-of-this-world results are well worth the time and effort, as Rick's elaborate dishes and feasts so beautifully show.
4. Does the series "New Scandinavian Cooking" exclusively feature the culinary creations of one master chef?

Answer: No

Andreas Viestad, Tina Nordström, Claus Meyer, and Sara La Fountain have all shared their vast food knowledge and talent with the viewer. Visiting such places as Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark, they explore the local cultures and create tempting dishes. Typically, one of these chefs hosts an entire season of the series.
5. Steven Raichlen is an accomplished TV grillmaster. Of which of these programs is he the host?

Answer: Both of these

With no new episodes being made, "BBQ University" has passed into history, but we can still enjoy it in syndication, as well as its successor, "Primal Grill". A few random "Primal Grill" episode titles are: "Fish Without Fear", "Heat Without Meat", and "In a Pickle".
6. Will Studd travels the world, searching out delicious varieties of a particular type of food. One episode finds him in Switzerland, enjoying samples of Gruyère, Emmentaler, and Sbrinz. What program does Will host?

Answer: Cheese Slices

In the same episode, he also gets to experience Raclette and Tête de Moine. As well as eating cheese, Will gets to see (and sometimes help) local artisans make their delicious cheeses.

The educational TV station in my area offers a self-made program called "Cheese Cubed: Three Tasty Bits of Cheese Knowledge in One Compact Package". This short program usually runs immediately following an episode of "Cheese Slices".
7. The be-aproned Christopher Kimball is the lead host of what popular series?

Answer: Cook's Country from America's Test Kitchen

Chris and his co-hosts are very serious about finding the BEST of everything food. They test all kinds of things, from recipes to kitchen equipment to ingredients and food products. Their findings help us, the cooks/viewers, make the best decisions in our kitchens at home.
8. Chef Ming Tsai is a TV chef who enjoys bringing together the flavors of the East and West. Select from the following the correct name of Ming's program.

Answer: Simply Ming

Ming's enthusiasm for his work is obvious from listening to him speak as he cooks.

Often, his program focuses on a particular food or combination of ingredients, and he may begin an episode by showing and discussing different varieties of the topical food(s). He also frequently collaborates with guest chefs.
9. This series got its start on public television, then moved to the Discovery Channel, appearing in a staggering number of incarnations, including "_____ _____ of New Orleans", "_____ _____ of the Caribbean", and "_____ _____ of France". What words go in the blanks to complete the series's title?

Answer: Great Chefs

"Great Chefs" shows master chefs in their own restaurant kitchens, creating their own signature dishes. With exotic locations, great background music, and no hype, this is cooking television at its best: pure, honest, educational, and beautiful.

"Great Chefs" on Discovery was one of the things that helped me de-stress and forget about my homesickness when I was living far from home.
10. This gentleman has been happily preparing tantalizing Eastern dishes on television for quite a few years. Who, according to the title of his program, "can cook"?

Answer: Yan Can Cook

The highly accomplished Martin Yan is as comfortable on screen as he is in his kitchen. His enthusiastic manner and fun phrases ("... just a little bit of ... SOY SAUCE!" and "... cut it up, cut it up, one, two ...") make his program a joy to watch.

"Martin Yan's China" is another of his programs.
