Select the most appropriate word to complete the following sentence:-
The baker used almond ____ in the cake recipe.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → flour
Flour is fine powder made by grinding grain or nuts, used in baking. A baker making a cake uses almond flour, that is, finely ground almonds.
Example: Mix the flour and sugar before adding the eggs.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 1: flower — Incorrect. Flower (pronounced like flour) is the coloured part of a plant; almond flowers are not used in a cake recipe.
Example: The rose is a beautiful flower.
Option 3: floar — Incorrect. "Floar" is not an English word; it is a misspelling.
Option 4: floor — Incorrect. Floor is the surface of a room that one walks on; it has no place in a recipe.
Example: The children sat on the floor to play.
