"ask" news and stories

Think you're pretty handy around the kitchen? Having nothing better to do on a Friday afternoon? Break up the monotony of the work day by checking out the Name That Utensil Quiz at the TLC website. There are photos of common and not-so-common implements to identify, along with a couple of questions about their uses. Your answers on the 11 questions will get you a rating from Tournant to Executive Chef so you can see how you fit into the kitchen. Take care to read all the questions carefully, though - while some are easy, others are a bit on the tricky side.

I'll admit that my score was 10/11. Take the quiz here and leave your score in the comments, below!

Popular British chef Jamie Oliver is starting a new series, but he won’t be seen on your TV. Jamie will be doing podcasts that deal with advice and cooking how-tos. Every topic tackled during the podcast will be in response to a query from a real cook who needs help in their kitchen. To get your question to Jamie, all you have to do is dial the dedicated phone line that takes podcast messages: 44 (0)207 043 8223. There is a 30 second time limit for messages and, as it is a standard London number, standard rates apply from wherever in the world you are calling. The best and funniest questions will make it on the air when the podcast launches later this year.
