4 Levels of Curry: Amateur to Food Scientist | Epicurious

We challenged chefs of three different skill levels - amateur Emily, home cook Lorenzo, and professional chef Yuji Haraguchi - to prepare their best curry recipe. Once each level of chef had finished and tasted their final product, we asked food scientist Rose to explain their choices from an expert's perspective. Which curry is making you curious?

I have a *TREMENDOUS* amount of respect for the gentleman cooking the Japanese curry for saying how important it is to kill without suffering in any way. People have no idea how bad the stress chemicals released into the blood of the animals they eat are to the human body. That goes for all animals

[@violet201]

yeah exactly! i'm not japanese but i'm bangladeshi and indonesian and we do the same thing. they're both muslim countries and eating the flesh of an animal that has been killed in a painful way is forbidden by religion. even though i'm not muslim i love that rule and try my best to stick to it!!

[@mastercleanseNOTdiet]

+violet yes💕Yes indeed. I was lucky enough to become close with a Muslim family & learned about the way they slaughter. I had already stopped eating meat though when I became involved with them. They seemed very impressed that I refused to eat pork starting as a toddler. But I learned about how bad our American system for slaughtering is in my youth & stopped eating meat by 15 years of age. Temple Grandin is the only person I know of that has tried to get American slaughterhouses to use her method. And her method is completely humane. She HAS created slaughterhouses💕 I just don't know how many are in operation

[@violet201]

@@mastercleanseNOTdiet oh wow thank you so much for informing me! i will definitely look into her!

[@chamwj]

You do realise the lobster is still... DEAD? Dying IS suffering no matter how you do it.

[@nuabioof83]

Lobsters don't have a signe brain but several nodules over the body the only ways to kill it fast is to cut is in half lengthwise and fast which requires skill, or to electrically shock it using a designated tool (actually the most "humane" way and the only one legal in Switzerland) The lobster was probably still a bit alive even though it wasn't moving because only the biggest nodule was broken by the knife tip. Keep in mind we don't have concrete evidence that lobsters like most invertebrates feel pain unlike vertebrates and fish so don't feel too bad for them
