| Curried Sausages and Apples |
Curry powder, a yellowish color spice, traditionally used in Caribbean, Indian and Southeast Asian cooking, is really a blend of many spices, and may have over fifteen different ingredients. Curry usually consists of turmeric, which provides its yellow color, paprika, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, various peppers, coriander, cumin and other spices.
The flavor of curry powder can be mild, pungent or hot and goes great with goat, beef, chicken, fish, veal, lamb, pork, eggs, vegetable dishes and marinades for meats.
When cooking, use low heat to avoid a bitter taste. Since the flavor of curry is imparted immediately, add the spice about fifteen minutes before the end of the cooking period.
