It's true.
The tradition cooking culture of indians and indonesians use lot of overpowered spice to cover up the freshness of the food, because they live in a very hot country where their food goes bad very fast and have very bad smell when refrigeration was not available back then. Their food literally goes bad in 1 or 2 hours. So, those country use spice to either 1. to cover up the bad smell and flavour of bad food, 2. to marinate the food to keep longer, and 3. use more flavour to help appetite in the hot weather. |
