[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now I want to order Indian food. [/quote] We actually did order Indian last night thanks to this thread. I got a craving. Aside from the offensiveness issue, I didn’t find either version of this column to make a lot of sense. I don’t like the single flavor of Madras curry that is available in your average American grocery store spice aisle—it’s too sweet for my taste—but I almost never encounter that flavor in Indian restaurant dishes I order, and no recipe from an Indian cookbook I’ve seen calls for it or for any other pre-mixed spice blend. I think it was probably common for Americans to use the store blend when trying to impress their friends with their “sophisticated” curry recipes in the 70’s. That sadly may be what many people of that generation, or some people currently living in areas with no access to good Indian restaurants, think all Indian food is like. [/quote]
