There's NOTHING subtle about the spice profile of Indian food.
I'm not saying it doesn't taste good. It's all heavily spiced and seasoned. It's not subtle.
>>
>>7036860
there is pleanty subtle going on, think about what it takes to balnce complex spice blends and how subtle aditions of spices can nuance a dish, or how there are about 5 ways to aproach the flavour of a single spice ....its dynamic and bold food, but theres alot of subtle layers
>>
Luck sucks
>>
>>7036315
looks like aloo saag, the stes of green make me think its mustard greens and not spinich, so its the north indian version....im more partial o gujrati/south indian saag but most saag is just asuch a comforting food for me
>>
>>7036883
Okay, I'll give your idea a chance.
What are the five ways to approach the flavor of a single spice?
>>
>>7036860
so they pretty much just spice up mushy stuff like toful or someting?

or just rotten meat or whatever they can find
>>
>! Yum
>>
>>7036895
raw and whole
raw and ground
toasted whole
toasted ground
and tadka, which is when you try spices in oil till they pop and then add this fragrent oil(spices and all into the rest of the dish

keeping spices wholevs ground effects weather you get strong pops of flavour or weather you get a more subtle infusion across the dish

toasting spices opens up and changes the flavours of most spices

indian dishes often rely on adding different spices, in different expresions at different stages across a dish, its about layering spices to get a kind of symphonic efect
>>
>>7036883
is this a joke. are you that retarded. that slop shit you posted is not refined its probably some combination they buy premade or have some elder person in their family make. you might as well be shilling for McCormick.
>>
>>7036910
yes there are gommon preground mixes, and people more or less inclined to use them more

but there are totaly loads of indian cooks who do mix their own masalas(much like the people who taught me)
>>
>>7036922
yes but its not hard to learn. you acted like its a fucking mirracle that the spice profiles could go together. I could literally sit in a room full of available spices for a day and come up with hundreds of combinations that have great flavor.
>>
>>7036933
its not just figuring out what spices taste good togethor..its balancing amounts and ordering the aditions properly
>>
>>7036933
thats like sayig "i can sit at a piano and come up with loads of good sounding chords" yeah, thats easy but it hardly makes you Rachmaninoff

americans being massive plebs about indian food is so depressing. indian food is literally the bomb.

>>7036315
Recently got back from NYC where I ordered Indian from the 2nd highest rated (Yelp) Indian in my area in Queens. Was absolutely disgusting. By far the worst Indian I've ever had. The place wouldn't stay open for a month in London. This might go some way in explaining why the Americunts on this board don't like Indian food.
>>
>>7036952
one of these things IS EXACTLY LIKE THE OTHER.
>>
>>7036962
but its not. finding the chord and using it over and over again is exactly what food would be. unless some of this curry is like an everlasting gobstopper from willy wonka where it completely changes its flavor profile repeatedly in the one single bite.
>>
>>7036970

food in general is much more complex than you're giving it credit for. the way you process the spices in indian food affects their flavour. the quantities you use relative to the other spices affects the flavour. the fat content, the water content, the length of cook time, the exposure to different levels of heat/bulb temperatures. there is a combinatoric complexity to it. it isn't just 'cumin and coriander iz gud'

it does change taste when you consider eating things with chutneys pickles, yogurt sauces, choices of breads or rices, acompanying side dishes, or eating as part of a thali style meal where there is a veriaty of dishes

indian dishes dont just play they same chord over and over, they augment chrds, come back in a minor, play it again sharp or flat

some well prepared indian meals may have more distince flavours than some whole restaurant menus may have
>>
>>7036980
have you ever been in a test kitchen... it sounds like you haven't. given the resources and time its VERY easy to come up with dishes that taste very good. and all of these comments are that ops SHIT LOOKING curry IS NOT IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM HIGHLY REFINED. because literally any idiot could OVER TIME make that same bowl of slop

>>
>>7037001

no one said it isn't easy to make stuff that tastes good, however you're making a broader point about food being a very simple, crude discipline when actually it can be very refined.

you're calling the dish slop, which is a clearly valid comment about its texture, and making wild claims about its flavour which you can't possibly know. it's an extrapolation. a lot of indian food is 'slop' but even within that group of dishes there is huge variation, and indeed refinement.
>>
>>7036996
thats still making things that taste good together. it is not hard. you know how dish a tastes so you pair it with dish b because you know that they taste good together. ITS EXACTLY MAKING A CHORD AND PLAYING SCALES.

>>
>>7037038

what you're doing might be intuitive but it can still be complex/subtle. i think you're taking praise for subtlety as an elitist comment but it isn't, really. everything has subtleties. takes a while to get to grips with them as an outsider.

This just shows how stupid you are. the fact that you dont understand how similar how curry and stews are. same basic ingredients. same prep method. different spices.
>>
>>7037038
So you can make a sarson ka saag from fleftovers, or a dal bati churma or a biryani or idli sambar or ussal poha? I've not mentioned any hidden from the world type of dishes. All of these dishes are among the top 3 most popular in their state.

What you slap together at home from leftovers is not indicative of the nuances of curry and in no way indicative of the subtelty of Indian cuisine. That's like me having chicken with mayonnaise and saying there's no subtlety in French cuisine.
>>
>>7037564
looking at curry as stew is a very western and reductive idea....its a british invention which ignores dry curries, curies more akin to puree sauces, and south indian preperations more like soup than anything

i would not say that preparing gujrati palak aloo is similar to any stew, and dishes like jalfrezi and thorans are pretty much stir fries
>>
>>7037564
How can anyone with even a passing interest in cooking think that all Indian food is curry. And then go on to say that all curries are stews. Are all pasta sauces stews too? What other reductions do you have to offer? Maybe all moles are chutneys.

And you're forgetting that all of these curries are eaten with something not on their own. Roti, naan, paratha, puri, idli, dosa, bhatura, kachowri, goan bread rolls, papad, appam, thepla, puran poli to name some without getting into the tens of variations things like roti and paratha alone have. These are all very nuanced takes on bread that accompany every meal. I'm sure you take the time out to prepare them to have a holistic understanding of Indian food the rest of us can only hope for.
>>
