Scent of the Day

[realexplodingcat]

One of my favorite cooking smells of all time must be the unique aroma that comes from dropping curry leaves in a frying pan of hot oil. The leaves come from (of course) the curry tree and are used in Indian and Sri Lankan cooking. While cooking a particular Sri Lankan dish recently, I also got dried red chili up my nose. That smells like burning.

Anything with the word chili seems to be dangerous around you. ;)

Yesterday's Scent of the Day was possibly the most horrid, face-burning thing i've experienced in a while.
