Curry - Yukkkks! My wife has always appreciated my apetite and openness to trying just about anything. I was raised in the mid-West by parents who were raised on farms. Interestingly, my mother cooked much more than beef, potatoes, corn and green beans. We had lima beans, okra, greens, spinach, califlower, brussel sprouts, broccoli, beets, navy beans, kidney beans - just about any and all vegetables were part of our everyday fare at the dinner table. She cooked beef in its many forms; including tonge. We ate lots of different pastas with different sauces. We had fresh chickens (we'd go down to Grandma's and she'd wring the neck of a nice roaster that got too close to her at the wrong time - fate!?). Mom would also prepare pork chops and pork loins and sausages from a small independent butcher close to my grandparents farm. We would also go out to restaurants for more exotic stuff like lobster and bisques and local catfish and other specialty fare. Wow, as I'm sitting here thinking about all the eating experiences of my youth and I'm so thankful to my parents for exposing me to so much diversity!!!!! Thanks Mom and Dad. This foundation has served me well and I have been able to try lots of new things all over the world as I've traveled. BUT!!!!! There has always been one taste that I have never been able to enjoy or appreciate......... CURRY. My wife says curry is a variety of spices and that she can't understand why I don't like it nor will I go anyplace that serves it. She loves curry-based dishes. We have a picture of an absolutely gorgeous luncheon dish prepared by the restaurant on top of Tabletop Mountain outside of Johannesburg, S. Africa that she claims is the best curry meal she's ever eaten; I wanted to eat at a different table. She says I should try different curry dishes to see if I can develop a taste and appreciation for the spice. It seems there is a great deal of the world that eats curry dishes in many forms. I'm open to any suggestions someone might have.
