The Popularity of Mild Curry Powder: A Worldwide Comfort Flavor
Mild Curry Powder enjoys immense popularity as an entry-level spice, especially in Western markets where it's the top-selling variant for home cooks avoiding intense heat. Globally, it's a bestseller in the UK, where curry is the national dish, with over 20 million portions consumed weekly. In Japan, mild versions star in kare raisu, a sweet, thick curry that's a household favorite. Its gentle nature has boosted sales in health-focused trends, as turmeric's anti-inflammatory properties appeal to wellness enthusiasts.
Relation to Various Cultures: From India to Colonial Adaptations
Though "curry powder" was a British colonial creation in the 18th century to mimic Indian flavors for export, mild versions relate to South Indian traditions using lighter spices like coriander. In Guyana and Trinidad, mild curries reflect Indo-Caribbean heritage, blending with African and Indigenous elements. Globally, it's tied to Japanese adaptations via British influence, showing how colonialism spread and softened Indian spice culture.
