In this hands-on workshop at KITCHEN at Boston Public Market on Saturday, June 9 from 10 – 11:30, you will learn about the history of curry powders, different types of curry powders, and the main ingredients used in making curry powders. You’ll get to sample some quick and easy recipes using curry powder and then make your own curry powder blend to take home from a wide selection of possible ingredients.
