Curry Powder
In America, this means the yellow powder you buy in the store, but there are almost infinite variations of curry powder. In the Far East, curry powders vary by individual cook, region, country, and even the class of who is being served. Most curries are spicier than the yellow curry that Americans may be used to.
Originally curry powders were shipped back to Europe when the East India Company controlled much of the spice traffic. At first, these varied greatly in their tastes, color and spiciness. At the Universal Paris Exhibition of 1889, a standardized curry powder was agreed upon and most recipes are subtle variations of that formula.
It is the turmeric that gives curry and other ingredients, including onion, pepper, ground cumin, ground coriander, tamarind, chili powder, fenugreek and mustard powder its yellow color.
Place the water in a medium sauce pan over high heat. When the water boils, add the brown rice and stir once. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until all of the water is gone (do not stir the rice while it is cooking). Set aside.
Place the onions, celery, carrots, bell pepper and chicken stock in a large stock-pot. Heat over low heat. Cook until the onions begin to soften.
Add the curry powder and the cooked rice to the soup.
Quarter tomatoes and seed them. Cut them into julienne strips.
Add the tomatoes, turkey and apples to the soup.
