If a recipe calls for curry powder and I don't have any in the house, what can I replace it with?
Thanks!

Tough call since curry is a mixture of spices and no one spice can approximate it. Usually that's the main spice/flavour of the dish, I'd say you're toast without it. :)

That is what I thought too Karma... Dang off to the store I go. Sort of hoping you would say here mix these together :) :)
Thanks!

You could try to recreate it: Curry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry#Curry_powder) if you keep those spices around. Not many people have turmeric handy.
