Lets Talk Curry / Re: Great tip for Tikka marinade.
July 13, 2016, 12:41 PM
By blending, you are breaking down the constituents into even smaller particle size, this will give more surface area of the spices and the smaller size enable greater penetration of spices in the marinade into the meat - hence sharper, deeper flavour. The blend being 'lighter' means you have entrained air (20% of which is O2) - this may enable a thinner more even coating of the marinade - thereby preventing the waste of flavour in a thick coating where your spices are held in suspension above the meat it is meant to be getting into. That's my application of surface chemistry via logic into Indian cooking.
O2 ? - doubt it. There was an interesting survey publicised on FB asking what made you decide a certain meal tasted better. The answer - when you took a photo of it to show off on media - proving no doubt - most of it is in your head !!
My home grown chillies are certainly very potent - I dry them at 50 deg C for 5 hours - then blitz them in a grinder to a powder - back to surface area effects.

Grow Your Own Spices and Herbs / Re: CHILLI GROW 2016

Update - of all my efforts with the Super Chilli seeds sown - 10x - 2x are still going OK and showing signs of flowering. The one surviving Basket of Fire from the 3x plants that was the replacement is likewise. It's been a long drag - but a good learning curve.

Sorry for that link guys - it turns out the Remainiacs hijacked the original intended for an Independent Day.
Can admin delete this whole thread please - I don't see any edit button that allows me to delete which I find odd.
