Alton Brown's Curious Case of Curry Spices

I immediately recognized the spice container in Curious Case of Curry from a Feasting on Asphalt bonus DVD segment.  Hopefully he sent her a free set of salt cellars :-)

New Good Eats Tonight: The Curious Case of Curry

Time for some international cuisine with Alton Brown tonight.  Good Eats: The Curious Case of Curry airs at 8pm Eastern on Food Network.  I was really hoping AB had mastered the curry soup from the Feasting on Asphalt bonus disc, but looks like just grilled lamp dish this time around.

On another note: From the tone of the chicken and dumplings show I expected a lot more opinions on dumpling varieties, but was surprised not too see too much action in the poll or in the comments section.  I'll have to ask around when I'm in South Carolina next month and see if they have a local spin.

New Good Eats Monday: Curry

Alton Brown is bringing us yet another new Good Eats episode on Monday at 8pm EST.  The Curious Case of Curry.  Fans of Feasting on Asphalt, or at least owners of the first DVD set, may recall Alton saying that the curry soup the hotel owners made for him was one of the best things he had ever had and could not replicate it when he got home from the road trip.  I imagine there will be a good dose of history in this show to trace the origins and influences of curry and the multitude of spice varieties.  Definitely looking forward to this one!

Stay tuned for bacon pralines and chicken 'n' dumplings in a few weeks!

p.s.  I had to resort to enabling word verification for comments after getting tired of all the spam and gibberish clogging up my comments section lately.  I apologize if I haven't responded to your comments recently and hope that the word verification isn't as cumbersome as some systems I've dealt with on the Net.

Thanks as always for stopping by!
