TORTILL A
Gelato has more flavour and a silkier mouthfeel. This is because the thicker texture and colder serving temperature of ice cream delays the onset of the initial taste. Despite this, both will be wolfed down at similar speeds, leaving them cone but not forgotten.
Sweet potato flesh is orange, and sweet in taste, while yams have a whiter flesh and earthy flavour. Americans have caused confusion here by referring to sweet potatoes as yams. Fortunately, this is the only known instance of Americans taking liberties with the English language.
Grab the wrong unleavened bread and you’ll have a wrap on the knuckles. In India, rotis are immensely popular and are frequently offered to guests. In Mexico, tortillas were first made with wheat following the Spanish conquest. So while one is a courtesy, the other is a Cortés-y.

ZUCCHINI
Cucumber might be cool, but zucchini is a major flex on the Scrabbleboard. For help with getting high scores, whizz together a dazzling mezze by drizzling a zesty cucumber tzatziki over a midsize zucchini. Now that’s playing with pizzazz. Huzzah.

DATES
How do you get a prune? Simply allow a plum to dry out. How do you get a date? That’s much, much trickier. Dates can be found amongst the fronds of date palms, but you generally shouldn’t try for a date once you’re in the frond zone.

What do you get hanging from banana trees? Besides sore arms that is. Both plantains and bananas grow on the same type of tree, so to avoid slipping up, remember that plantains are large, starchy, and require cooking, but bananas don’t and are small and sweet. A fact that makes them much more appealing.
These versatile legumes are the core ingredients of a number of beloved foods, including hummus and tofu. Just don’t mix the two up while making classic Middle Eastern cuisine. A mistake like that is liable to make you falafel.
