  • Balanced scoringWe test every quiz so no result is hidden behind the others — each outcome has a fair chance of coming up.

What each result means

  • The Recipe Loyalist

    You measure the teaspoon and preheat before you even open the packet. Cooking is a procedure you respect, so your food tastes the same every time, which is exactly the point.

  • The Fridge Improviser

    No recipe, no plan, one good pan and a suspicious amount of confidence. Your best meals look like accidents and your worst ones teach everyone in the flat a lesson.

  • The One-Tray Pragmatist

    You cook dinner and the washing-up at the same time, in the same vessel, in forty minutes. Nothing about your kitchen is romantic, yet you somehow eat properly every day.

  • The Oven Therapist

    Bad week? There is cake in the flat by eleven. Baking is how you process your feelings, which is why colleagues keep receiving brownies whenever something happens to you.

  • The Gear Collector

    The tools are the hobby. You own a thermometer for the oven and another for the steak, and the unboxed gadget gets used once, beautifully, then lives in a drawer.

  • The Microwave Realist

    You have made peace with feeding yourself efficiently and you refuse to perform cuisine for anyone. Fast, cheap, rarely wrong, and secretly you poach an egg better than all of us.
