SCORE SHEET
- C The others are quick breads,
meaning they use a leavening agent
other than yeast, such as baking soda. - C Unsweetened cocoa powder or
chocolate—along with ingredients
like molasses and coffee—can give the
German rye bread its dark brown hue.
3. A Whiskey is the nickname for rye
bread, and “down” refers to pushing the
lever on the toaster.
4. C Otto Rohwedder invented the
bread-slicing machine in Davenport, IA.

Muffuletta D; Gyro A; Banh miB - C The FDA requires only a trace of
whole grains for a company to label its
bread “made with whole grains.” - (One point for each) India B; France A;

with French baguettes.
14. D Boule translates as “ball” in

crusty white bread.
15.(One point for each) Olive Garden C;
Texas Roadhouse A; Outback

the bruschetta that Italian immigrants
brought to the United States.
18.F Soda bread is named for the
baking soda used to leaven it instead
of yeast.
19.F Focaccia is usually puffier thanks
to a higher yeast content.
