Got half of it wrong. I must get more involved with spices
And you got half of it right! Thanks for playing, Eventplan 🙂
QUIZ: Can you recognise these Spices?
You got 11 out of 14 right!
Nice score, Branka! You must be a good cook 🙂
You haven’t offered one more answer to the question no.1: dzinka. 😀 Great quiz, Norman, especially for us who love to cook. 🙂
Džinka? Is that what you call hot peppers? Glad you enjoyed this quiz. I love using spices too 🙂
Yes, that’s the right name for small, hot papers, in Serbia. 😀
Well I guessed and guessed and eventually got it done.
I got 8 correct, started out nicely but missed few in the middle!
I tried to build up the level of difficulty! You got a pass anyway, Courtney 🙂
Well I will take a pass, much better than failing 🙂
I got 12 right I really love using all kinds of different spices.
Me too, Sandra! You did really well 🙂
8 correct here, this was fun. I thought I would do better too. I guess I have never seen some of them growing.
Well I hope you recognised the black pepper you have growing outside your door!
lol yes I did, there were a few of them I have seen here. 🙂
Seven out of 14 on the spice quiz.
You scraped a pass at 50%, Deep! Thanks for playing 🙂
You are very welcome Norman.
thanks so much this is cool
Thanks, Mavic, I’m glad you enjoyed 🙂
yup because i love spices as well, and sometimes we forget what the name is.
You got 10 out of 14 right!
Very nice score, Snezana! Thanks for participating 🙂
Missed #2, 7 & 9. Learned a lot Norman. Thanks for the quiz.
Green ‘black’ pepper is a misleader for sure! Thanks for playing, Carol 🙂
Fun quiz, missed a couple that I have to say I’ve eaten but hadn’t seen in its pre-ground and packaged for my consumption form.
Yes, that can be a factor – certainly for ‘black’ pepper that is green!
Great quiz! Now if I could just get my kids to expand their spice palettes.
Yes, that has held me back from using chillies for many years. But my youngest’s tongue is at last becoming more tolerant!
In our house it is my oldest that can’t stand spicy!
You got 9 out of 14 right!
Great! You sure know your way around a spice market!
Aha! Nice score, Marija, and thanks for taking part 🙂
