Many people know that curry is native to India
.
In fact, this understanding is somewhat "biased"

The word curry comes from the English "curry", which originally corresponds to the Indian Tamil language, meaning " sauce "
.
Until now, Indians never cook with ready-made curry powder
.
There are dozens or even dozens of kinds of spices in their kitchens , and the chefs can decide which ones to put and how much to put in cooking .

This is actually very similar to Chinese food, all ingredients are "in moderation", and each chef's taste is different
.
Just like the mutton steamed buns in Xi'an, no other restaurant has the same taste
.
All they eat are steamed buns, but there are also differences in whether they are good or not

01 The origin of Indian curry
Therefore, rather than saying that curry is a specific taste, it is better to say that curry is a cooking >
.
After the British colonized India, from the perspective of foreign conquerors, it is impossible to understand this "appropriate" beauty
.
Indeed, this kind of "appropriate amount of beauty" without a standard is not suitable for the spread of globalization

02 "Unified" curry flavor
Around 1810, there was a C&B company in the United Kingdom, which fixed the formula of the next curry powder, which sold well in London.
Since then, it has defined "curry flavor"
.
Later, with the British colonial rule, the "curry flavor" spread all over the world
.
After localization in various places, local raw materials are added to form many curry flavors such as Thai curry, Malaysian curry, Sri Lankan curry, Japanese curry, etc.
The formula is not fixed

Therefore, even the national standard "GB/T 22266-2008 Curry Powder" does not strictly limit the main ingredients of curry
.
Suffice it to say that curry powder should be: "Clean, dry, intact spices and seasonings that have been ground and mixed

Market demand gave birth to innovation, and by 1960, curry seasoning blocks had appeared in the Japanese market
.
At present, most of the curry blocks on the market in China are this Japanese->

.
