Literary notes about curry (AI summary)

One intriguing way authors have employed the word “curry” in literature is to evoke a warm, subtle hue reminiscent of the spice’s natural tint. In one culinary description, for example, the term is linked with “Whitish Yellow” when describing Egg Curry [1], suggesting that the color curry carries with it the earthy, saffron-like tones of turmeric. This usage highlights an aesthetic overlap between taste and sight, where the vibrant, spicy character of curry becomes a metaphor for a rich, appetizing color in the literary imagination.
