Many thanks to all who bought this quiz and even more thanks to those who sent in their answers.
When I compiled this quiz I thought it would be an easy topic, but, sorry, I was proved wrong. I have allowed a few alternative answers, and have not taken plurals into consideration, plus some answers can be written in a different order.
The book I used was the
GOOD HOUSEKEEPING COOKERY ENCYLOPAEDIA, which was first published in 1951, my copy says ‘This separate and Revised Edition 1964). I have had it since I was at school and found it extremely useful over the years.
The answer sheets have now been sent out, including the new quiz mentioned above.
