Every time I see an art restoration going bad I can't help but picture Mr Bean (the film).
That's how I believe it actually happens it real life as well, and to be honest I don't think it's that far fetched.

So does Curry mean Spicy in regards to anything Indian? So if I wanted to order Shrimp curry it would automatically be spicy?

I don't think that's fair. All curries are spicy in comparison to western foods. They aren't all heated, but always have plenty of spices, and most do have at least *some* type of chili.

That said, curry is a western term that basically means "spicy stew from or inspired by food from south or south-east asia". These dishes have actual names, and the only specific meaning of curry is for the leaves of the curry plant, which are often used in south-Indian and Sri Lankan food.

Spicy doesnt mean hot in this context right, because Ive had a fair few curries that are basically not hot, but obviously most indian food in general is going to go hard on spices.

Wow, I always thought "curry" was the name of the spice that gave the "curry" dish its distinct smell (and, therefore, the dish being named after the spice). Guess I was wrong.

If I'm understanding google correctly, turmeric is actually the main spice in curry, or at least the one that gives the distinct smell?

If you are referring to something like [image loading] then that's a real bastardization of 'Curry'.

Anyway, my take:

Spice is all types of spice, and it does not have to be 'hot'. But the adjective 'spicy' normally implies something about the capsicum (basically what makes chilis 'hot') content.

Curries refer to a wide range of dishes, typically either Indian or south east asian (thai and malaysian in particular, I don't think vietnamese really make curries even though they make amazing food). The flavor profiles of these are very different. Indian curries tend to have more cumin, coriander seeds, turmeric (and chili), and are often balanced with yogurt. (There are way more spices that can go into a curry, but I've never seen an indian curry that did not contain all these 4.) Thai curries tend to involve curry leaves, galangal root, lemongrass, (and a lot of chili), and will sometimes, but not always, have coconut milk. (Again, there will normally be more - but I've never had Thai curry without these 4) It's generally more soupy than the Indian one. Malaysian ones tend to go further in caramelizing the spices, but are more like Thai than like Indian curries.

In addition I believe there are big regional differences within the respective countries, but I don't know enough about this stuff to really opine on that.

Yeah, that's what I used to think. I'm still curious what is the spice in curry that gives its distinctive smell (if it's possible to point to a single one).

I actually think it's probably fenugreek seeds. They have a very distinct smell, that same yellow color (this is also found in turmeric, but turmeric doesn't smell as strongly.) My wife is by western standards a curry expert and we've identified fenugreek as the one ingredient found in those curry mixes that we never use when we make our own mixes - and she gets instantly triggered (negatively so) by the smell of those mixes.

Turmeric for the color and fenugreek for the smell, although cumin, star anis, coriander and ginger also all smell strongly, so it's quite the mix. But fenugreek in particular smells very stongly.

I thought turmeric is the main thing in all things called curry.
As to the spicy-hotness. I've eaten a lot of Indian curry lately and there are many nutty curries that are more sweet than anything and not hot at all. Though I don't know if this is a traditional In-dish (hehe)

Has anyone here ever officially, legally registered a trademark with the USPTO? And if so, any tips? Is the process as straightforward as following this checklist: https://www.uspto.gov/trademarks-application-process/filing-online/teas-tutorial#step1

This is not advice: my advice to you is, if you are averse to paying a regular IP lawyer straight up, to use something like legalzoom as an aid. Even with relatively rote registration oriented legal tasks, having someone who knows what they’re doing check your work is of great value.

how legitimate/useful are all the free coupon extensions or other price saving tools you see advertised for web browsers. are any of them actually worth using, I tend to be paranoid about this stuff so I haven't tested any of them out.

Hey everyone, im looking for the English (original) name of a Donald Duck story I once read in Danish.
How could you guys recommend I go about this? I’ve done a lot of googling, trying to find reddit communities, facebook groups and so far I havent found anywhere that seems like a good place to find someone who can help me

(The story is written by Pat McGreal and is about Donald Duck taking on a mask, travelling back in time to when the conquistadors were; and then DD is mischievous towards them dancing around playing a flute - like a Kokopelli figure)

Trying to find the danish name first using any kind of information you remember (release date, author, themes, specific names you remember, ...), then going to the according wikipedia page and pressing on the english language would be my strategy.

Yeah. I tried that already! Alas no luck. Tried with other languages too (Der Regenmacher etc) but seems like most wikis dont do more than one language.
