Description

CURRY, which “straddles the line between an ingredient and a finished dish”.  Magazine F celebrates the diversity of curry, by featuring chefs, spice merchants and “curryographers” (curry enthusiasts who document every spicy encounter) from around the world. Join our journey as we spotlight the layers and versatility of curry, and sit down to talk to people who serve curry dishes in global urban food hubs like London, Bangkok, Tokyo, and Seoul.

Curry is a combination of herbs, turmeric, pepper, and other spices that is enjoyed at a stew-like consistency with carbohydrates like rice and bread. Originating from India in the mid-18th century, curry quickly popularized and spread around the globe by South Asian immigrants who settled in London. Japan also played a critical role in boosting the food as a convenient home-cooked meal when the country invented curry powder. Curry has made an indelible imprint on street food, which is leading trends in mainstream culinary culture. The versatile food has been interpreted in countless ways by countless cultures to become a universal food eclipsing recipes, borders, and traditions.

CURRY Quotes

Curry means a combination of many spices to Indians, but British people, who spread the word all over the world, regard it a finished dish. They say, “I’m going to have curry for dinner.” To Indians, it sounds like, “I’m going to have sauce for dinner.” To British people, curry means Indian food. The word encompasses all Indian dishes. Curry has become such a powerful word.
If asked, Japanese people would pick ramen and curry as national dishes. People grow up eating ramen, but they don’t cook it at home. In contrast, curry has become synonymous with an easy-to-cook meal that anyone can enjoy at home since solid-type curry roux hit the market. That’s how the two dishes became most favored by the Japanese.
