#TodayILearned that hot peppers were not used in European, African or Asian cuisines before the 16th century. Even though I had known that chili peppers came from the Americas, I somehow didn't clue in, since I've enjoyed so many hot spicy foods from Indian, Korean and other cuisines!

TEArificbooks Same with tomatoes. And for years Europeans wouldn‘t eat them cause they are from the nightshade family. And what amazing dishes they created with tomatoes. 🍅 2mo
kwmg40 @TEArificbooks I hadn't thought of tomatoes, but you're absolutely right! It's such a staple in so many cuisines around the world these days. 2mo

This was a cookbook that I enjoyed reading all the way through, as it contained interesting history about how curries evolved in different parts of the world and lots of tips on using different spices. I made a baharat spice mix from one of the recipes and hope to try a few more recipes before I return this book to the library.

PuddleJumper Haha that's a fun interpretation 2mo
kwmg40 @PuddleJumper I don't usually read many books in the other “spicy“ category, but I do love spicy foods! 😂 2mo

I've been reading Gulp by Mary Roach (the best popular science writer out there, IMHO), and now I can't eat anything without thinking about whatever I read most recently in her book. #food #science #curry

Billypar Mary Roach is the best. One of my favorite parts of Gulp was the section on Fletcherism. I feel bad for Mr. Fletcher's dining companions - all that chewing couldn't have been great for conversation 😅 3y
