"At that time, I still believed in Santa, the tooth fairy...and that "a year lasts forever." Fast-forward to when I moved out and started cooking for real, and imagine my shock: every "famous" seasoning is actually a blend of other herbs and spices. (I know, everyone knew but me, didn't they?) Now, as any home cook will tell you, sometimes you just have to play chemist and make your own seasoning blends in a pinch."
"So then I got thinking - how many home cooks actually know what's really in those famous spice blends? Let's find out! I'm about to put your spice-and-herb knowledge to the test. I'll name and show you a spice blend, and your job is to spot the imposter - the one herb or spice that doesn't belong in the mix."
A home cook began experimenting in elementary school and initially believed "Italian Seasoning" was a single, magical spice. Growing up, the cook maintained childhood beliefs until moving out and discovering that many famous seasonings are blends of multiple herbs and spices. Practical cooking sometimes requires creating custom blends when commercial mixes are unavailable. Curiosity about other cooks' knowledge inspired a quiz format that challenges readers to identify the imposter herb or spice in a shown blend. The challenge asks participants to spot the one ingredient that does not belong and tests familiarity with flavour profiles.
