They usually violently stink after a day of work. The issue is that we actually don't use a base curry and make the curries separately. this means a lot more time getting your hands involved with the chili, cardamom, turmeric. So yeah we all smell like indian food aggressively at the end of the day.
>WHY DO INDIANS SMELL LIKE CURRY 24/7???
I can specifically answer this now. Its because of fenugreek and asafoetida, and also because of chili powder. the first two ingredients are very pungent. most ingredients indians use leave a pungent aroma and its stronger than any other cuisine's. but seriously, the answer is very obviously fenugreek and asafoetida now that ive worked with these foods regularly

>Do you train your employees to wash their fucking hands and not eat directly out of the pots of food?
I'm not the owner, but the eating food directly out of pots of food is a regular occurrence especially if the curry came out really good. we have had the Indian, mexican and white guys working at my place all take spoonfulls of curries at some point at the other behind the owner's back. sometimes ive eaten the remaining dough and aloo masala leftover from a large samosa batch too

>show me a pic of your favorite meal and tell me about it.
>i know its very diverse
Yes, it is extremely diverse. Indian restaurants in america can only really do broad strokes of the most common dishes from north and south india (they ignore the west and eastern regional dishes usually)
Anyways my fav dish is gonna have to be biryani, specifically lamb biryani. Biryani is a spiced saffron rice dish with potato. Its mixed rice and can be compared to mixing a curry, later combining it with semi-cooked rice separately.
Its cooked by letting the dish breathe in its own aroma or juices to make it more flavorful. large pots are sealed with dough or cloth to trap the steam, which then cooks the meat and rice until tender.

And some of the non-veg curries. There are cheaper indian restaurants than mine in the area, some dip down to 6-8 bucks a curry plate, but there are some that go to the $15-18 a plate or $20 for lamb curries in my area too. so i'd say the prices for my indian place are solidly mid-range

This is going to sound like a typical joke question but it is actually frank. In India, there is a taboo on using left hand for eating, yes? Does it also apply to food preparation? In the diaspora, presumably this taboo disappears when the new generation assimilates. But does it ever cause disagreement, either at the table or in the kitchen, when new immigrants are eating or preparing food with Indian-Americans?

Why do you get Naan bread at the same time as the rest of your food? I thought it was supposed to be used to scrape up all the sauce that's left on the plate, but when you're done eating the majority of your food the bread is already going stale. And it tastes the best the first 5 minutes out of the oven. They should bring it out 5-10 minutes after you've received the main course. Either that or you just sit and dip bread in the sauce for the first part of your meal.

We use all the basic spices you can find in online indian curry recipes (turmeric, chili, cardamom, cumin, garlic, ginger, clove, coriander, mustard seed, etc) But the two ingredients that are less commonly stated that you NEED for that "restaurant" indian taste are: fenugreek and asafoetida. do NOT ever forget these two things.

Help me out man. My son, “Chris,” is 9. A few weeks ago, we decided to open our bubble to include the family of “Neil,” Chris’s best friend. Both of Neil’s parents are doctors, so this seemed like a safe decision. Both parents were born and raised in India. We let Chris have dinner at their place the other night since both boys were having a great time together. When we came to pick up Chris, Neil’s mom recounted to me how much chicken curry and lentils and vegetables Chris ate. I couldn’t believe that they served my son spicy curries without even calling to ask us if that would be OK! I was taken aback and gently mentioned that spicy foods can be hard on small tummies, but it didn’t seem to register. Thankfully Chris didn’t get sick.

Yes, indians prefer the paneer texture of cheese rather than feta/nabulsi brine cheese. the chewy, non-melting texture of the paneer is what indians are used to and most of our clientele are indian in a big city with lots of indians so we definitely get lots of paneer orders.

Regular pot being 20 servings, we use 1.5 cups of hing total. you might be using diluted yellow hing powder, which is not as potent as the undiluted hing that indian restaurants use.

Thanks for responding. I hesitiated to ask the question, not so much because of the expected "poo in loo" jokes, but because a lot of Indians and Indian-Americans seem to have an inferiority complex and get angrily defensive. (Because the jokes get old, and also because they know that India does have certain sanitation issues.) But personally I find the old-country taboo quite reasonable, and I would not think anyone "backwards" for continuing to follow it.

Compare: When I was growing up, we had no problem with wearing shoes in the house, but I know people (not just Asians, but certain Eastern Europeans, among others) who find that practice disgusting. And even though Americans in urban/suburban areas are not routinely walking through horse & cow dung during our daily errands anymore, I do accept that the practice of switching to indoor shoes/slippers is not only more hygenic, but also more civilized, even today, and so I have generally changed my own habit.

The original question has a more general practical aspect. For example: When shopping at Indian grocers in the US, I have sometimes wondered if I inadvertantly caused offense to the qt3.14 desi-auntie cashier by unthinkingly giving her money or receiving change with my left hand. (Even though money is not food; it is filthy anyway.) Now, this is America, and she should not actually be surprised or offended. But still, I have entered a place which is almost like an "embassy" of a foreign culture. (America is not England; Indian food is still exotic here, not assimilated.) And if I can do a little something extra to show respect, something that is easy and morally unobjectionable, then why not do it?

Or would this be considered as silly as a white American trying to eat a fortune cookie with chopsticks?

>1. How do you use kalpasi?
Based question, its called "stone flower" but its actually a lichen. Dry ground kalpasi has little or no smell and should be roasted in little oil to get its actual and full aroma. It has a distinct smell, which it would impart, if used properly i.e. after roasting (also depends on how and for how much time you marinate). Its generally used in combination with other spices like cardamom, cloves, bay leaves, cinnamon, nutmeg, star anise, saffron, peppers etc. for flavor.
On its own, it can't add much flavor.

How to use: simply ground the kalpasi up and mix it into your masala mix, and use the masala with your biryani or whatever as you normally would

Kalpasi is one of those things that give the "indian restaurant" flavor to your food

>2. What is the secret to a good bhindi fry? Why is restaurant bhindi masala like 69% oil?
I don't know the answer to this because we don't make bhindi. I fucking hate bhindi anyways
>3. What's a dish that's similar to korma?
Butter chicken or Dhansak. Lots of dishes use the similar curry style korma uses with lots of yogurt
>4. What are the best dishes that white people missing out on?

Thank you for sharing. That's interesting to me, suggesting a symbolic evolution of the etiquette beyond its practical origin. Perhaps receiving with the left (inferior) hand is supposed to signify humility and thus gratefulness on the part of the receiver. (Or, ha ha, maybe it guarantees that the giver will not take back his gift, after the receiver has tainted it.)

Is that why the vast majority of USPTO filings are from Asian-American inventors like Indians? our lateral thinking skills and entrepreneurial superiority is quite evident in american society. you can rage on all you want about OK Cupid stats or whatever but we are quite obviously better americans than the vast majority of white americans, especially weird /pol/ types like you who ignore how much crime white people commit compared to us, as well as the ridiculously high amount of government leeching you guys engage in.

>the most elite subset of the wealthiest/most educated segment of a 1b+ populated nation who can afford to work and live in the United States, concentrated in one geographic hotspot due to its proximity to prestige tech companies, outperform average, native born whites

Whoa, Sandeep! You're really blowing my mind here with your big brain observations. I guess I must have been imagining the hundreds of millions of sub-80 IQ curry monkeys gang raping and street shitting across their subcontinental shithole. Your sample selection is truly indicative of the broader desi population. Bathing and drinking from the same river we shit in and dump corpses? Dysentery ho!

I've grown up around Indians my entire life. Many of them are fantastic people, particularly those American-born. But as someone who works in STEM and went to a STEM university, off the boat Indians are an absolute fucking menace. I've never seen a group more transparently nepotistic, more shamelessly eager to cheat, lie on resumes, and generally fuck up everything they touch. For every brilliant Indian co-worker I have, there's at least ten degree-mill H1B visa street shitters who purely exist to sap money out of the system and set a spaghetti code garbage fire ablaze for everyone else to put out. Get off your fucking chosen race ego-trip.

Also, I made my first curry today. Thought it came out pretty nice.

What a meaningless statement. The reason we are even having this conversation is because of how much white, western culture historically frowns upon nepotism as a concept. That does not mean smaller ethnic/religious/etc groups haven't 'looked out for their own' within the broader Christian, Anglo-Saxon American identity that dominated for most of the country's existence. All I meant is that few are as flagrant with it as off the boat Indians are aside from maybe Jews.

Frowning upon =/= not engaging in it. We literally have family political dynasties, I do not deny this. There seems to be this missing of the word 'flagrant'. Maybe my words are lost on people from a culture where caste still exists.

America has its problems with nepotism, but these are openly challenged and questioned, and have legal statures in place to further its abolishment. If you don't acknowledge this, you're just being dishonest.

Americans are convinced that white people in America do not display "fragrant" examples of nepotism...am I actually reading this correctly? You are beyond deluded and can't cope with the fact that Indian-Americans climb positions in corporate America really fast because of their technical competency, not because of nepotism. Nepotism is a white American tradition. From Donald Trump, Ulysses S. Grant, Zachary Taylor, Rutherford B. Hayes, Woodrow Wilson, JFK, FDR, to Clinton and Dubya. In Minnesota, it is perfectly legal for a governmental official to hire a family member. If a white person ever claims your success as an Indian in America is through nepotism or a life gifted to you from white people, then kick them in their milk-breathed mouth. Asian-Americans work 50x harder than any other group. Keep working hard and you will finally be able to break the glass-ceiling framed on White nepotism and finally be able to pass policy to set these useless conservative Whites straight

LMAO, Indians climb positions in American tech companies because they accept lower pay than their American peers. H1-B visa workers are synonymous with incompetence and negligence. You are utterly deluded. There are entire industries that center around giving Indians fake degrees, job histories, and technical qualifications, just to keep pumping them out into American universities and offices. And when they get there, they rely entirely on their fellow Indians to stay above water. Which is why you have things happening like the entire Gujarati student body in my Comp Sci program getting test answer keys from Gujarati TAs, and flagrantly plagiarizing each other's essays and code every step of the way. This is beyond any American form of nepotism. It is systemic and internationally invasive.

HAHAHAHAHA oh my fucking god this is how i know you're a useless /pol/ monkey who doesn't understand how the world works. Bangladeshi SDE's are given 250K starting (not including RSU's) at companies. This isn't because they are undercutting native engineering wages, its because they bridge the skills gap and offer much more to these companies.
The myth that Indians undercut the native work force is a complete hoax started by white americans who can't seem to grasp the fact that there is a huge skills gap that American engineers don't have the skills to make up for. American companies don't offer positions to Indians to save money. If they actually wanted to do that, they'd ship the job overseas you fucking moron.
Pic related is what Indian engineers usually earn after a couple years in the company. Is this "accepting lower pay than their American peers" to you?
Use your fucking brain, no one would pay to have Indians/South Asians come all the way to America just to pay them THIS much if they could just outsource the work and have it sent back for code review for far cheaper.

Bullshit.
South Asia shits out 2 million garbage jawa coders every year. There's nothing they could do that an American couldn't do. American universities are far better than whatever engineering college Indians went to. The skills gap exists in the reverse direction.
The reason they're brought over here is because they can be made to do more work for the same (or lower) pay. Their managers have to sign the H1B forms periodically, and as long as they have that power, the foreigners are at the mercy of their managers. So if you don't want to lose your H1B visa, you have to work overtime and be on-call, or do anything else your manager requires.
Then there's the problem that Indians are happier to have a lower standard of living, since anything is better than living in India. Americans have no reason to accept a lower pay and a lower standard of living.
