"Red hot" recipe with just a conservative tablespoon of curry powder! It was a very different time
@nathanjustus66592 жыл бұрын
A tablespoon at the time was a British tablespoon, which had 4 teaspoons of curry. The measures are a *little* skimpy but this isn't a huge amount of meat. Spicy of course does not need to be hot. I live VERY spicy food but I can do without large amounts of hot peppers. Of course, that's all personal tastes and has no value judgement. But I do think we've all learned to eat hotter food these days.

Of course now you can’t make any of these recipes because supermarket meet has been soaked in water, and has chemicals added to make it absorb as much water as possible. The rationale is that the heavier it is the more they can charge. When you cook it though, you just end up with a pan full of liquid and a tiny shrunken piece of meat.

then don't buy your meat at a supermarket. Find yourself a good local butcher. You might pay a bit more but you'll be much happier with the result. :-)

The chicken broth and salt/preservative keeps the pack of chicken fresh on display and in your fridge for longer. It keeps the color and the moisture to the meat. It'd turn ugly and dry and wouldn't be bought if it didn't have the injection. The only way to avoid that is to literally buy it as fresh as you can from a butcher. If it comes in a pack, it needs that to keep it in a condition you would want by the time it makes it to the store and you decide to pop in to buy it. The chicken wasn't butchered two seconds before you came in and then wrapped in its pretty shrink wrapped package. :P Many grocery stores do have a butcher in the back too. You can ask them for cuts. Or if you see the cuts that specifically have the store sticker on it (and were obviously not packaged in a factory and shipped there), then they are butchering them and putting them out themselves and they are less likely to have so many additives, if any. Different stores will have different policies, but those are usually done right in-store.

@TheRenaissanceman65 My only time in the UK was in 1991, but around Oxford University, there were some copy machines that still used the only 2 shilling coins, so they had a supply of those. Then I noticed that the 10 new pence coin was the same size as the only 2 shilling coin, which made sense, as ten of them would add up to a pound (20 shillings or 100 new pence).

First, do you realize that in 1977 inflation in the UK was 16.5%? A And it was high throughout that decade? The oil crunch in the mid 70s hit a lot of the developed world, but the UK was having other balance of payments issues that exacerbated some structural problems in their economy. The short of it is that a lot of people were struggling and trying to spend as little money on things as they could because they couldn't afford it. Second, are you aware that 40 years 6 years have gone by since then, and the diets of the UK (indeed, most of the world) have changed a lot and gotten a lot more international for all of us because of travel and immigration? And that tastes change? Third, are you aware that New Zealand was shipping frozen meat to England from 1882? Are you aware that the UK was the country that began a minor change to the way we live and work called "The Industrial Revolution?" Don't you think they knew how to do this? Do you have any idea where your food comes from now? I don't know in what country you live but I would unsurprised if quite a bit of your food comes from significant distances under refrigeration or freezing. Fourth, have you ever eaten English food?
