| 10/8/26 |  Episode 17: How have curries changed as they moved across the world? | South Asian cooks were masterfully blending spices long before the Europeans arrived in India, and when Portuguese traders brought chiles from the Americas in 1498, it permanently changed the trajectory of the country’s dishes, including what we now refer to as curry.

Nik, Lan, Bryan, and Lidey discuss the evolution of the dish as it crossed the globe.
