                Now! Are you really a master with pasta?

                  Do your soufflés keep their good shape?

                Are you getting the hang of a perfect meringue?

                  And know three different fillings for crepes?

                 

                So - do you really entice with your rice?

                  Know a Russet from Worcester Permain?

                Does your Strawberry Surprise win you a first prize?

                  And is Cava the same as Champagne?

                 

                Aha! Is your mousse designed to seduce?

                  Do your sponge cakes just struggle to rise?

                Was your undercooked stew just a bit hard to chew?

                  Whilst your strudels brought tears to the eyes?

                 

                Well - did your pastry lose all of its puff?

                  Has your beef steak been cooked until tough?

                 Do you let out a scream, when you can’t whip the cream?

                   Phew! On this subject this is quite enough!
