Fascinating stuff, and a wonderful approach to cooking.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01924284685403279877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5384341532888644134.post-31084596940330576572010-12-05T02:00:02.074-05:002010-12-05T02:00:02.074-05:00As someone who maintains a Hindi-ish kitchen; I wo...As someone who maintains a Hindi-ish kitchen; I would say that when making your masala powders to spice curries - leave out the ginger and add it into the recipe at cooking.

Chinese five-spice is another example of that. <br />I'm not quite up to making my own curry powder, though I am expanding what curry blends I use. I do make my own taco/burrito seasoning now, so hope to keep improving!<br />(my captcha is "gratones"...any relation to gratin?)Harriethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08588567085043426044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5384341532888644134.post-6721141684497504862010-11-27T20:55:05.672-05:002010-11-27T20:55:05.672-05:00That's some cultural appropriation, right ther...That's some cultural appropriation, right there.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01924284685403279877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5384341532888644134.post-56480484446060694532010-11-27T11:57:56.356-05:002010-11-27T11:57:56.356-05:00Point of interest - Curry was actually ordained as...Point of interest - Curry was actually ordained as the National Dish of Britain for 2008. Tells you how far they've come. EVERYTHING is curry in the UK, which results it some very interesting cross-culture dishes being made.Shahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11382046735759539697noreply@blogger.com
