The Curry Chronicles
Curry is, supposedly, Indian. But there is no such word in any of the country\u2019s many official languages\u2014and no Indian would use the term to describe their own food. So what is curry? This episode takes us to India, Britain, and Japan on a quest to understand how a variety of spicy, saucy dishes ended up being lumped together under one name\u2014and then transformed into something completely different as they were transported around the world. From a post-pub vindaloo in Leeds to comforting kare raisu in Kyoto, we explore the stories and flavors of curry\u2014a dish that\u2019s from nowhere and yet eaten nearly everywhere.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
