[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone explain to me what ‘curry’ spice is? I’m of Indian origin and never heard of it. I cook with chillie powder, cumin, coriander, cardomom, ginger, garlic etc. What is ‘curry spice’ that Americans talk about? [/quote] Go to the Whole Foods spice aisle or Penzeys. You will see one or two bottles labeled “Curry Powder.”[/quote] Indians don’t cook with that. We don’t use anything called “curry.”[/quote] That is made for non-Indians who are looking to add Indian flavors to their dish. There is no “curry” spice that is widely used by Indians. Does not exist. [/quote] +2 White lady married to an Indian American here. ‘Curry’ is a spice sold in non-Indian stores that white people use to make ‘Indian’ food. Real Indians do not use this. Instead they most commonly use cumin, coriander, garam masala, etc as spices in their meals.[/quote]
