...When many think of curry they automatically think Indian cuisine, many kitchens across the nation now have the spice in there spice cabinets. The word curry refers to both a spice mixture and a style of cooking. Curry is a spice used in a dish of meat, vegetables, etc., cooked in an Indian-styles spicy sauce and served with rice, bread or flatbreads like Roti. (http://www.merriam-webster.com) It is usually a golden yellow mustard colored spice that includes a mixture of various eastern/Asian spices like cumin, coriander, turmeric, ginger, cloves and many other ingredients Curry comes from the word Khari which means sauce in India. Curry can be traced to being used in 1700 BC Mesopotamia. Found to be used outside of India in countries like Japan, China, Thailand, Pakistan, Vietnam, Indonesia, Africa, and even the Caribbean (http://www.indepthinfo.com/curry/history.shtml). Due to its use in so many different countries the cultures vary as well as the ingredients used to prepare the spice. Depending on the ingredients used the curry spice can range from mild to really spicy and yellow to red. The ingredients used can also alter the aroma the curry releases once it is used. Aside from its usefulness in the kitchen, curry is known to be helpful in many other ways. It is frequently used in traditional Indian cooking. However, there are several other uses for curry powder that can spice up an average dinner anywhere or add a kick to an everyday dessert. Some may even improve the user's...

...It is Curry night in the our household. An outsider will be puzzled, because there are several dishes that are completely different. Is the food Indian? Is the food Thai? What is that other stuff, I don’t think I have ever had curry made like that? Curry night in our household explains the complexity of curry in itself. Faisal is from Northern India and his food perspective is influenced by Pakistan as well… curry to him is a stew/saucy dish that contains some variety of a masala and other spices. I have a more worldy view of curry. My first taste of curry came from Germany, all though we generally do not have curry wurst as a part of our curry night. As a child we used to go to Imbiss stands to get pommes fritz with curry ketchup, to this day it is my favorite condiment. I then had the privilege of being introduced to Southern Indian Curry dishes in high school. I further grew to love the diversity of curry in my years in California in Thai and Japanese Cuisines. It was a twice a week occurrence that I was at my favorite Thai restaurant ordering yellow curry with chicken, until the chef finally gave me his recipe. But of all the curry, I love Japanese Curry the best. Strangely enough, in the American Culture it is the least known. Most people think the only thing that comes out of Japan is sushi, tempura and yaki soba. In this paper, I will discuss the origins of this interesting word called curry; whether curry is a spice or a dish. I will also discuss how...

...Curry is having an off couple weeks with his shot, not merely a forgettable Game 2 as a large part of the 95-93 overtime loss to the Cavaliers that will never be forgotten around here if the Warriors don't respond to the challenge of a 1-1 Finals heading to Cleveland. This is shooting at the worst possible time. He was 7-for-18 in Game 4 of the Western Conference finals in Houston, the night of the ugly crash landing in the second quarter. He was 7-for-21 in Game 5 while still sore and wearing a shooting sleeve part of the time as the Warriors reached the Finals for the first time in 40 years. Following the rest of seven days off after Golden State and Cleveland both quickly wrapped up their series, Curry looked fresh in the opener of the championship series on Thursday, making 10 of 20 shots and scoring a team-high 26 points as the Warriors won in overtime. I chose this article because i love sports and mainly basketball, and i was watching these games as i was doing this currents event project, but i also chose this article because like the team Golden State Warriors and i also like Stephen Curry. But more importantly i chose this article because i do not like Cleveland Cavaliers nor do i like Lebron James and seeing him and his team lose to this game made me pretty happy. My Christian perspective on this article doesn’t really change aside from the fact that all of these teams not only playing in these major professional leagues but just anyone that plays sports in general...

...of Britain are meat, fish, potatoes, flour, butter, and eggs, as many of its dishes are mainly based on these ingredients.” (Mandy Barrow, 2010). On the other hand, the Indian cuisine is one of the most popular cuisines in the world and is famous for its great love for food and more importantly, spices. Even though same foodstuffs, such as meat, fish, etc. are used in India as well, the varied uses of the spices are a vital part of food preparation as this makes these dishes unique. For example, even though tandoor dishes were first made in Central Asia, Indian tandoori dishes such as chicken tikka, made with Indian ingredients, enjoy rife reputation. This may be considered as one of the differences. Another major difference is in the curry. Indian cuisines often involve spicy dishes which are usually preferable to Indians. On the other hand, British cuisines...

...way. Here are 10 of my own personal favourites, but if I had my way it, would be 20 ! 1. Banana Leaf Banana Leaf One of the great south Indian cuisines we have the privilege of eating on a daily basis should we chose is, of course, Chettinad cuisine. Chettinad cuisine is the cuisine of the Chettinad region of Tamil Nadu state in South India. If you love rice, you will definitely love the Banana Leaf Rice. In banana leaf rice, white rice is served on a banana leaf with an assortment of vegetables, curried meat or fish, pickles, and the super addictive papadum ( look like giant, round, flat crisps). Most of the time, however, only the gravy of the curry will be served and no meat is served as it is meant to be a traditional Indian vegetarian dish but since I am no vegetarian, I love mine with mutton redang and dry chicken curry! This meal can get really sloppy since it is traditionally eaten with the hand, but most of us have this down to a fine art! 2. Nasi Dagang Nasi Dagang – Malaysian Food No Malaysian...

...Old Nam Kee In 1956, Mr. Nam started Nam Kee Chicken Curry Puff with a small stall inside a coffee shop outside the former Capitol cinema. Each curry puff was hand-made and properly sealed to lock in the aroma of curried potatoes, chicken, a slice of eggs and spices. Mr. Nam started the business with $10,000 and his entirely family helps out at the tiny stall to churn out enough curry puffs to meet customers’ demand. In 1963, Mr. Nam started his first branch near Katong. The Katong stall proves to be a hit with those living in the East and his curry puff ‘loyalist’ grows. By the time Mr. Nam opens his third stall in Toa Payoh in 1970, he was very sure that a central kitchen is a key piece of his expansion plan. Mr. Nam managed to set up a ‘central’ kitchen in a shop house along Balestier Road in 1972 through borrowing from OCBC.

Tuesday, July 27, 2010 Kerala Spicy Mixture (Serves 10-15) MIXTURE is a salty, spicy snack for all occasions and was an essential component of the “tea parties” that often accompany the marriages in Kerala, until recently.Though trendier foods have replaced this salty, crunchy snack in more affluent parties, an average Keralite is still in love with this awesome snack. It goes very well with almost any kind of traditional food and serves as a filling tea-time snack. Also, its longer shelf life makes it an ideal face-saver in front of unexpected guests. Roasted rice flour 1 cup Gram flour/Besan 1 cup Red chilly powder 1 tsp + 2 tsp Asafetida ¼ tsp Peanuts 1 cup Chana dal ½ cup Dry red chilly 3-4 nos Curry leaves 3 sprigs Oil 2 TBSP + more for frying Salt as needed Water Preparation In a mixing bowl, add the rice flour, gram flour/besan, salt and 1 tsp red chilly powder. Mix well and drizzle 1 TBSP oil. Combine well and knead this into smooth dough by adding water little by little. It may stick to your hands at first but the oil will help to get smooth dough as you progress with kneading. Set aside. Heat oil for frying in a deep pan. When hot (check by adding a piece of the dough, if it comes to the surface promptly, oil is hot enough), using an idiyappam press (picture shown above), with the small hole mould plate, sieve the dough to hot oil in circular motion, like how you do it for idiyappam.

...Ashish Samtani Professor Robert Anderson English 001A-034 7 November 2014 Enter as Strangers, Leave as Friends Made from simple and savory ingredients, authentic Thai cuisine blends the blandest of base foods with the most exquisite of spilkces and peppers in order to create a highly flavor-oriented dish. The Thai culinary technique is based on having the food as flavor filled and fresh as possible. In order to achieve this, the food is prepared with the simplest ingredients with the freshest quality; recently caught fish brought every morning, rice from fields rather than factories, aromatic herbs along with locally grown spices. All of these ingredients are then stir-fried, sautéed, steamed, or grilled with a special sauce in order to make the dish as healthy and natural as possible while also being quite flavorful. Thai cuisine is one of the finer nuances of world cuisines due to its unique and complex flavors. Within Southern California, Riverside is home to one of the few Thai restaurants that I have personally been to that is as close to the taste of its motherland’s original palate. Holding a place in Riverside’s Top 10 Restaurants, Bann Thai House is home to a unique and memorable dining experience. Their menu and lunch specials are reasonably priced with more than satisfying food portions, perfect for college students looking for an extraordinary dinner within a fair budget. Upon turning the car onto Brockton, I noticed how the local area changed from The Riverside...

...Curry: Where did it come from? Spices found in a lamb vindaloo were also found in food remains dating back 4,000 years Curry is such a British favourite, the UK celebrates National Curry Week, but how was the food invented? The UK has adopted curry as a "national dish", with more than 9,000 Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi restaurants and the creation of British-Asian dishes such as chicken tikka masala and balti, says the National Curry Week website. It says about 23 million people eat curry regularly. Since its inception, the word curry has "changed its meaning and become universal as a menu word", says Alan Davidson, in the Oxford Companion to Food. Once it just meant Indian food, but "it now denotes various kinds of dish in numerous different parts of the world, but all are savoury and all are spiced," it reads. "Everywhere the cuisine is enjoyed has its own variations and peculiarities," says the National Curry Week spokesperson. An English cookbook, The Forme of Cury, was published in the 1390s, and all hot food was called "cury" from the French word cuire, meaning to cook. Alan Davidson writes however that curry comes from the Tamil word kari, or spiced sauce, which was originally a thin, soup-like, spiced dressing served in southern India, amongst many other stew-like dressings for meat and vegetables. The most complex and sophisticated puree sauces are made in Asia and Mexico. The sauce or "gravy" for many Indian and Thai dishes begins with finely ground...
