@Chef James Makinson chef, Portuguese bought chillies, tomatoes and potatoes to India, before that, our food predominantly had black pepper, turmeric for color, the "Red" colour in our food came only after Portuguese, and since we had a high demand for black pepper( because of silk road) once we figured that we can simply use chillies for spice and export the black pepper, we simply turned to chillies and this happened over 100s of years, and still today you can see a lot of traditional dishes have no chillies tomatoes and potatoes, and now coming to your point, the curries in Indian cuisine started recently for about 300-400 yrs, before that our meals were rice and lentil stew(along with veggies such as pumpkin etc(in the south)) and roti and rice with lentil stew(in the northern india) the curries that we generally associate with indian food, such as butter chicken etc, are very recent, not even a century old.

For spice, mostly black pepper was used and the dishes tended not to be really red, mostly yellow from turmeric. A dish like tandoori chicken is a relatively modern one.

Also, traditional indian food is always naturally coloured(the colour that a vegetable or something would attain after its cooked) with little to no coloring. But yes, one coloring that we have almost always used is turmeric. Most indian "home cooked " food, is actually more yellowish in hue thanks to turmeric. The attempt to make it red happened due to red color usually being associated with enticing and spicy food. But before the portugese introduced the chilli to india, most food would either have yellowish hue and for heat, spices like ginger,mustard and black pepper were used. Infact peppercorns and ginger have been native to central asian countries for quite way back and are prominent in a lot of herbal remedies, that a lot of households here still follow to combat minor ailments.

Also various colours were from the variety of lentils and legumes like coconut ( white), masoor dal ( orange yellow), toor dal i.e Pigeon peas( yellow), green gram( green), horse gram ( brown, yellow).

Something thats important to note that I believe you may have pointed out before is that it looks like a lot of ingredients, but honestly for an indian kitchen, these are very normal staple ingredients that are in the pantry, maybe except the black salt. All of these ingredients will definitely be at a local Indian grocery store, so obviously if you dont have them you'll likely have to buy them. Most of these spices have a long shelf life, especially in the dry version

Chillies were brought to India by the Portugese (from the Americas)- so also Tomatoes and Potatoes. Heat was brought about through liberal use of black pepper. In Kerala, many traditional dishes still use black pepper as heat agent; though the use of green chilies is increasing by the day. For example, there's a condiment powder used as an accompaniment to Dosas and Idlis called podi (which literally means, powder), of which there are two varieties:one being the generic red-coloured one using red chilie, and the other being the grey yellow one where we use ground black pepper.

Traditionally, before chillies were introduced, we have a spice called ratanjot or Physic nut, which gives red color to the food. It is mainly found in the northern part of India and was used in Ayurveda (natural system of medicine that originated in India 3000 years ago).

@ChefJamesMakinson Жыл бұрын

I have never heard of that that is very interesting!

@pranav.pujari Жыл бұрын

Ratanjot is Alkanet Root in English, it's used to colour a famous dish you must have heard called the Rogan Josh, and there's an interesting way we derive the colour out of the root. So the dish's name itself has the way it's made or what's used. Rogan refers to the ghee or the fat that floats atop curries and gravies, and Josh is the firey red of the dish. Ratanjot has the innate colour which is lipophilic, therefore to extract the colour one would heat the ghee(or any fat/oil) and get the ratanjot in off the heat and the let the colour seep into the ghee, strain it and viola! You have your your beautiful deep red coloured ghee to paint your Rogan Josh

- For colour: as many have written, we use “Ratan Jot”. Specially used in Rogan Josh and Tandoori Chicken. - Spacer in the pressure cooker: So that the chicken don’t stick to the bottom, as it’s directly over flame. - Cloche : Cling film might melt if it accidentally touches the hot coal. Best is to use a bigger bowl and invert it over. Or, if the bowl is deep enough, use Aluminium foil. - Use of BBQ/ Grill : in many small places they do it grill that they use for Kebab.

Before the chilli, i think the heat came from pepper. The restaurant curries are so bright red. Homemade ones are usually yellowish due to addition of tumeric or orange due to tomato and onion paste or on the light brown side. This happens when tomato and corriander leaves are ground together. To get a white curry, onion and cashew is cooked with green chilli and then ground together. All the colours of Indian curries are natural when made at home. Some restaurants add artificial colors.

I was lucky to work in an office on Brick Lane and just across the road there were two indian restaurants that were excellent. Any business lunch i held there. And yes, Tandoori Chicken is one of my favourite dishes, but it has to be good, really good and so far i was never able to even remotely replicate it. What i also like with this video is, that he doesn't throw the ingredients around and treats everything with love and respect. Alone the preparation with the muslin already shows that quite a bit thought went into this.If i would have seen anybody throw food around when i worked as a Chef de Cuisine in my younger years, i would have definitely found a new use for the deep fat fryer or tested how good the knives are when throwing them.Well literally... ^^.

Chillies are introduced to India in the late 1600s by the Portuguese. And tandoori chicken is a comparatively new dish introduced by the Mughals. So before that, there is no tandoori. So I don't think there is any need for dye in food. Btw Haldi(turmeric) is a natural dye.

As an Indian who loves to cook and loves history (by no means am I an expert in either), I read a lot of Indian food history. So I will provide a historical perspective. Indians cooking marinated meats (including) chicken in a makeshift oven can be traced back over 5000 years to the ancient Indus Valley Civilization. These mud-plastered ovens with a side opening were found at Kalibangan (an excavated Indus Valley site). There was marinated meat (goats, sheep, buffalo, pigs tortoise, crocodiles, rats ) dishes cooked in ovens for millennia all across India. The etymology of 'tandoor' can be traced back to Persians and Central Asians and Akkadian before that. But in Sanskrit, the oven is called 'kandu'. Kundan Lal Gujral who had migrated to Delhi after partition in 1947, is said to be the inventor of the tandoori chicken. What we know as the tandoori chicken was invented much after Indians knew of chillies (brought to India by the Portuguese) So there was no tandoori chicken before the introduction of chillies. But a range of marinated meats cooked in an oven with different spices did exist. (turmeric, pepper, ginger, cumin, garlic cinnamon, long pepper, mustard seeds, fennel seeds, and fenugreek)

Couple of pro tips for tandoori chicken - 1) Using raw blended papaya in the first marinade should make the chicken alot more tender without adding any papaya flavour. 2) This is my personal opinion but I don't like to temper the mustard oil. I like the zing it provides and most of the pungency should go away once you cook the chicken 3) Rather than basting with butter you can use ghee or even mustard oil or a mix of both. 3) To get a strong smoky flavour smoke the chicken after cooking. 4) Adding onion paste to the marinade will enhance the flavour.

Black pepper was used before chilli in India. If we go back a bit in history, Chillies and Tomatoes are fairly new additions to Indian food. Chillies came with the Portuguese. Before the Portuguese arrived in India, they used something called Pippali, which translates to long pepper. The tandoori items i saw on the streets in Mumbai were more yellowish, white and slightly red/orange-ish from the addition of Kashmiri chilli. Food dye is added often in the West because it's what people associate with Indian food. Personally, I never bother adding colouring to the food I cook. I like food looking like food, and not like a venomous frog laying on the plate.

In Pakistan, at home, we mostly something called an "angithi" (would highly suggest you look it up if you don't know about it) which is a makeshift fireplace situation with burning coals, we skewer the meat and rotate it over the coals kind of like a rotisserie, and baste with some type of fat like ghee or oil throughout, the coals add the smokiness of a tandoor as well as the charred bits!

To remove smell from meat marinating in vinegar gave the best results, wild ducks and rabbits especially. Smoking mustard oil is nit necessary for two reasons firstly it gives a flavour of its own and secondly the tandoor cooks at high heat which will round off the sharpness of the oil.

We don't use color dye in Indian cooking. We use Kashmiri red chilli powder (which is less spicy and more color) or beetroot to add color to gravies. Also frying Kashmiri chilli powder in oil increases the redness of it. It's only street food or hotels that use short cut and use food color.

Yeah Portuguese brought Chillies/pepper in India, but to the mainland India. But here in Northeastern India Chillies were already here since time immemorial. The aborigines/ethnic tribes here already cultivated few varieties of pepper mainly Ghost Pepper/Bhut Jolokia, Demon red chilli, Birds eye chilli,etc.. There are even Wild varieties of Chillies endemic to NorthEast India. This is why NorthEasterners have significantly high resistance to pepper Spiciness than other parts of India. Fun example: Good example is Myself & my Family, we add 300-400 grams of Chillies to cook about 600-700 grams of Meat. Acc. to us, Chillies boost immunity 😂
