NYT Strands today (game #213) - the answers
The answers to today's Strands, game #213, are…
- SCONE
- DANISH
- CROISSANT
- MUFFIN
- STRUDEL
- GALETTE
- SPANGRAM: PASTRIES
- My rating: Moderate
- My score: Perfect
Hello, Mr/Mrs/Ms NYT, I have a question for you: in what way is a MUFFIN a PASTRY? Or a SCONE? STRUDEL, yes. CROISSANT, definitely. DANISH, sure. GALETTE… well, we'll get to that. But not MUFFIN or SCONE, which are both quick breads or potentially cakes. Maybe I'm missing some crucial detail here – I'm not a chef – but I just don't get why they were included.
Fortunately, it wasn't too difficult for me to find them anyway, because I'm well aware that sometimes the NYT makes odd decisions with categorization, so I always watch out for curveballs. That didn't help me with GALETTE, though, chiefly because I've never heard that word before. Still, they look lovely, so I shall be trying one next time I see one.
How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.
