gaz1 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 i used to love a vindaloo, as i got older it went down to a madras and now on balti:rolleyes: but i do enjoy most indian foods, also they used curry/chilli powders years ago to preserve meat, simalar to us salting meat, have you ever seen a fly happily sit on curry powder;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ent Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 mmm......use spice for rotten food? nope..... you have remember, in UK, or anywhere thats not the origin place of said dish is somewhere between 50%-80% different. the food thats cooked for you guys in the UK, it has been changed, watered down, taste completely different to the same thing thats cooked in its originated form. the taste most 'british' people can take is very limited, majority of you, can only tastes things that is 'stong', as meaning high in salt/sugar/vinegar. the reason why most of you cannot take down 'hot' food, is simply because the 'hot' dish from most restaurants in UK only containes flavour of spice, and lots of it, a proper curry/hot dish from a indian/chinese/japanese/korean containes more flavour to 'enhance' the flavour, so in turn the 'hotness' you can tastes is less 'violent'. anyway......but whoever told you spicy food is made because the meat has gone past its best consumed by date.....is slightly off the mark......

Strange you should say that. I've had curries (including those served for breakfast and lunch) in Malaysia. I never ended up with anything hotter than any madras I've eaten in this country. We ate in upmarket places and also 'back street' traditional establishments where we helped ourselves from large pots of curry (£0.70 for curry and rice), so I know we didn't get 'watered down' strength. Are Malaysian curries known for being mild? Also, there's nothing wrong with eating meat that's on the turn. It's traditional to hang pheasant until it starts to go off.
