Curry of Life from Naruto | Anime with Alvin

[@shroomfruit345]

Why, did something happen there?

[@BetaDude40]

It's buzzfeed lol. It's all just vapid clickbaiting and is a highly thankless job because there's very little way for journalists to inject their own personality

[@itsdddaniii]

@@shroomfruit345 as far as i understand buzzfeed in general is just really exploitative of their "famous"/"viral" employees and creators, hence why the Try Guys left and created their own compant, same with the Unsolved guys who are now Watcher, and a bunch of other creators from their "golden age" in the mid 2010s.

[@sweettea3879]

Adopted is such a strange verb to use

@@sweettea3879 It is accurate though. It's not like Babish adopted Alvin to be his CHILD; he was simply adopted to their CREW.

[@kaelynsung8227]

Keep in mind that in many dishes, you don’t even really eat the Sichuan chilies. Restaurants normally just use it roughly chopped for flavoring. So imagine eating them blended up in a sauce

[@stephadoodledoo]

I def eat some of the chilies throughout the meal because the surge of endorphins is unmatched. XD But i am also lovingly called a freak of humanity by my other spicy tolerant friends so my judgment may be off.

[@grammernotzi]

@@stephadoodledoo I know exactly what you mean by the surge of endorphins. I was at a ramen place and asked if they had any secret off the menu hot sauce. They had concentrated chili oil from Trinidad Black Scorpion peppers. After the first ten minutes of flamethrower mouth, the rest was surprisingly delicious!

[@Nipah.Auauau]

Wait I'm not expected to eat the sichuan chili chunks??

[@jonathanreiter2852]

This is especially the case with dishes like Laziji where the chilis are really heaped up there. Eat the chilis if you dare, but it's going to be a bad time for you in overnight.

[@grammernotzi]

@@jonathanreiter2852 I'm so glad I have a cast iron stomach. I feel sorry for the people who get the "chili ring" the next day. 😆

[@HeartOfAmaranth]

What's funny is that, by and large, Japan's spice tolerance is fairly low, so if the Curry of Life is just considered "pretty spicy" by Japan's standards and can wake up an unconscious person, Alvin's Curry of Life might be spicy enough to also wake the dead 😳

[@PassTheMarmalade1957]

That's why it's the Curry of Life!

[@kikiscribbles]

The curry is so powerful it creates babies out of nowhere which then leads to overpopulation and the downfall of mankind Alvin what have you done D:

[@lllKXlll]

I think in the anime(albeit this is a filler arc), they did wake people from death(Electrocution IIRC), so yeah, that'd still be pretty canon.

[@AC-ni4gt]

Or wake a completely asleep human

[@Dru_Stephan]

This is what Kakashi and Sakura used to wake everyone from the Infinite Tsukuyomi. It just happened off-screen.

[@krishnaparmar5735]

... the fact that Alvin turned from soft golden baking boi on his own channel to "THIS WORLD WILL KNOW PAIN" on here.. is poetry.. It's perfection... it's Life 🤩

[@squid683]

[@ToyotaCorolla-en2mv]

This was probably one of my favorite arcs from the og naruto, both cause of the bit with the curry and because i absolutely adore rock lee and any arc that gives him his well deserved time to shine is great.

[@claykalmar8131]

The ending scene with everyone trying it and instantly regretting it reminds me of my college days. One guy in the apartment has a hot sauce collection, and we would all try them and end up looking like you and your coworkers haha

[@GCOSBenbow]

^ I was always a big fan of spicy stuff and pork scratchings so my parents got me some ghost pepper pork scratchings which I graciously shared with my housemates. I think one of them ended up being sick in the toilet later so you can tell it went down well.

This has been my favourite Anime with Alvin so far.

[@darcwizrd]

I don't know if y'all had heard of this, but in haitian cooking we have a mushroom we use called Djon-Djon that is basically a very deep black coloring. You can get usually get them from anywhere that has a sufficient supply of haitian foodstuffs, but it does also come in stock cube form too. It may not get it as deep black as food coloring, but it probably would add more to the flavor of any dish that needs to be black

[@nattycat14]

Yessss!!! We have a huge dried packet of the stuff, personally it's my least favorite haitian dish, but my mom absolutely loves it, something about the food neing thay dark in color throws me off 😩

especially watching Neji passing out twice after being fed the curry. That guy has no resistance to spicy food.

[@detaaditya6237]

It's one of the better pretimeskip fillers. Kishimoto even made the main villain canon in Might Guy's flashback

[@TAGfrost]

Try drinking pineapple juice instead of milk with spicy foods. For this dish, I would recommend a pineapple mango boba, the mix of acidity and basic with the sugars should help neutralize the spice and the slight fats should help absorb the spices to get them off your tongue.

[@laughingseagull000]

[@johannithunstrom454]

I made this the yesterday! Ofc, I skipped the thousand spicy peppers but it was delicious. Only feedback is make sure you cut the shapes differently as its very hard to tell what is meat vs veggie. I kept opening up a potato hoping for some beef lol

[@ssatva]

So just as a note, there's a Sri Lankan 'Black Curry' made with a dark roasted curry powder. It's quite distinctive and nice, the roasted powder is very dark, and has no chilies; you have to add those separately. There also does seem to be a 'black curry' thing from Japan, which uses a small bit of charcoal (careful with that stuff, it can mess with digestion).

[@singleT314]

Other note with carcoal. It can mess with medications.

[@clovebeans713]

Active charcoal absorbs essential nutrients and causes deficiencies.

[@karaoconnoraliasraidra]

On one hand, activated charcoal has detoxifying properties and can be used as a remedy for some poisonings. On the other hand, it can do what Clove said. It’s something else to be used responsibly.

[@jacobkern2060]

​@@karaoconnoraliasraidraYou are effectively eating a dry sponge when you eat activated charcoal, and it does not discriminate with what it absorbs.

[@Silverwind87]

Do NOT eat things with activated charcoal if you're on some kind of medication, especially if it's birth control or HRT. Safe alternatives to charcoal include black cocoa powder and squid ink, either of which would make for an interesting curry.

[@kkmdew09]

Anime with Alvin just keeps getting better. Please keep him around as long as he wishes to be there. This really made my morning and sets me into a mood to have a great day! Big fan of both Naruto and all Anime with Alvin that I have seen so far, even if I don't always know the anime.

When I watched Naruto, I always rooted for the green Beatles boy. He didn't have any natural abilities like Naruto or other Ninja Village characters, and despite being ridiculed for his physical constitution, he followed a similar path his sensei and became the strongest.

Thank you, Alvin, for your bold sacrifice. This is definitely a dish I’ve wanted to try since I was a child lol and the Nigerian in me is curious as to how I’ll fare against the spice level!

I love how Alvin keeps saying the Curry of Life could wake someone up with one bite when all it does to Neji (may he rest in peace) is knock him out XD

[@ohmslobby]

During Covid when I lost my taste I started eating extreme spicy foods. And this curry is making my mouth water.

[@arowace498]

That's funny, one of my family members was born without a sense of taste so he puts hot sauce on everything. Maybe he'd like this.

[@PassTheMarmalade1957]

This makes me wonder...Is spicy a taste, or is it a sensation? Can you still "taste" spicy foods if you have no sense of taste?

[@mangosteak]

@@PassTheMarmalade1957 Spicines is pain. It is a sensation similar to what you experience when you touch a nettle

Could it be possible that they either numbed their tastebuds too much or completely dead to any feeling?

[@Turd_Emperor]

@@PassTheMarmalade1957 spicy itself isn't a taste. It's a feeling. A lot of the times, that taste that goes a long with spice is usually the natural smell or taste of pepper or other herbs in the dish

@@AC-ni4gt Restaurant to Another World just hits different from other food anime. You can really feel the atmosphere of the restaurant

[@AC-ni4gt]

I already felt it and got extremely sad that it ended at season 2

[@ghostathan]

you forgot the addition of a live turtle! this arch was sort of silly, but i really liked it because we got to learn about rock lee. the black curry always stuck out to me. Also! Ive never seen the extra hot curry! i can only ever find the hot kind. i always thought it was silly that it was labeled hot. its very mild in comparison to even hot chips.

[@AC-ni4gt]

There is such thing as Extra Hot curry roux cubes. I don't eat those since my spice tolerance is able to tolerate Mild levels.

[@dhawthorne1634]

I made black curry about 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately I'm allergic to seafood and had to make a version without squid-ink. NOTE ON GRINDING YOUR OWN CHILI PEPPERS: The dust created in a food processor or electric spice grinder will be like getting maced. Wear a respirator if you have one. I personally recommend grinding in a manual food mill or tobacco shredder to get fine flakes instead. Edit: For the black color, you can also darken the curry with your own mixture of espresso powder, dark chocolate, soy sauce, dark brown sugar, oyster sauce (vegan options available), oxidized grated apple, a splash of blueberry or blackberry juice, using purple potatoes instead of white and pan-roasting some Japanese or Korean curry power until it is almost burnt. It also helps to mix the curry powder from scratch and omit any yellows like turmeric.

[@felixlara2945]

Turmeric is like a key seasoning tho

[@dhawthorne1634]

@@felixlara2945 It doesn't add much flavor in something as bold as a Japanese style curry. While they do include it in their curry powder, it is mostly to help get that rich brown color. For black curry, you need to bring out more of the reds, blues and purples. Since brown is a shade of orange, adding in yellow will shift it back to brown.

[@edibandulan5266]

Man, in indonesia we use a fruit called kluek to adding black color.

[@richardfischel9565]

To darken the curry, use purple sweet potato; it's a great addition, especially to a spicy curry... 😋

Should have took out most of the edible curry out and only put small portion of it with the chili. So that most of it can still be enjoyed normally. Hopefully it wasnt thrown out.

[@DRCEQ]

this is one of the best Anime With Alvin episodes, just because of everyone's reactions.

[@SoggyCoffeeAddict]

That end product reminded me of my most recent batch of enchiladas, I had made the sauce. Had it all ready to go, but my mom tasted it and thought "hey, this has way too much bitter. Needs more spice to cover that up". Which is what the meat, onions, and cheese do. But she ground up like, an additional 6-8 dried chili peppers and mixed it into my sauce without telling me. I was probably physically sweating more than my nose was running, and I thought multiple times "this is what pure capsaicin must feel like"
