Remains of a Portland Cement plant in Mississippi. I think this building was used to store the powder bags used for making cement.

Playing with a house-made sound trigger, an SB-24 Flash and some powder...
Para hacer esta foto utilicé un flash Nikon SB-24 acoplado a un disparador que reacciona al sonido. De esta forma, poniendo el flash en el suelo y la camara con el obturador abierto, hice explotar un globo lleno de harina justo por encima del flash...
This is a recipe for a Sweet Curry Powder, some might call it Madras Curry Powder. It has as much heat as you want it to, and you can increase the peppers to taste. I use it for my sweet curried chicken recipe.
There are a lot of spices that go into a good blend and at first it seems to be a fuss to make compared to just buying it premixed. But really the hardest part is just amassing so many ingredients. And finding a recipe to work from. I never would have tried it myself until one day I was making curry and ran out.... and somehow I had all the ingredients to make my own. I haven't been happy with any particular recipe on the internet so far, so I've been tweeking several to make the one I have listed below. I may yet do a few more adjustments, but I feel it close enough that it will work as a good base for any of you who'd like to try it yourself. There are so many curry recipes out there that none of them can be considered wrong or the recipe. Adjust to taste! Also, I'd love to hear opinions on any who've made their own.
Because these whole spices are so small and compact, it is almost the same measurement as ground - close enough to make no difference in most cases. I measured each of them after grinding and was surprised. So if you need to sub a spice due to not having it whole, use the measurements in brackets.
Curry Powder Recipe (in progress)
3 T whole cardamom seeds (3T)
3 T whole cumin seeds (3T)
3 T whole coriander seeds (2.5T)
3 T fenugreek seeds (2.5T)
2 tsp whole fennel seed (2 tsp)
1/2 cup turmeric powder
2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp ground white pepper
2 tsp ground black pepper
2 tsp ground red pepper (like cayenne)
1/4 tsp ground cloves
Toast whole spices over medium heat in a heavy cast iron pan or a non stick pan. Keep the spices moving and be careful not to burn. Toast until fragrant (3-5 minutes). Let cool before grinding otherwise you'll get steam and sticking spices inside your grinder. Trust me on this.
You can also heat ground spices but be especially careful as it is much easier to burn and damage ground spices.
If you can, let the spice blend sit a couple days to meld the flavors together. I find the cumin stands out far too much at first grind, but it mellowed into the other spices once I let the blend sit.
Some say it was a Dupont powder mill, some say Rand, but we visited today way in the woods near Fairchance, Pa

Dating from 1475, the Powder Gate was built as one of 13 gates to the city of Prague.The Powder Gate was important to the Bohemian monarchs who would pass through the gate on their way to St. Vitus Cathedral to be crowned.
As the city grew beyond its old walls the Powder Gate grew less and less important . By the 17th century, it was being used as a gunpowder storage facility - it was at this time that the gate developed its current name.
The Powder Gate was designed by master builder Matěj Rejsek to follow the design used by Peter Parler for the Old Town Bridge Tower at the base of Charles Bridge.

Point Pinole was the site of the Giant Powder Company, the first US company to purchase Alfred Nobel's invention-dynamite. After disastrous explosions in San Francisco and Albany, killing some 71 workers over the course of five explosions, the company relocated here in 1892, where it continued manufacturing in heavily protected earthen bunkers as seen here. Giant Powder was purchased by Atlas Powder Company in 1915, which continued operations until 1961. All that remains are a few foundations and the earthen bunkers scattered around the park.
At the press house located here, mules would deposit ground and wet charcoal, saltpeter and sulfur at one end. The press would then ram the mixture into bricks. Everyone ran off when that happened, as there was always the possibility of setting off an explosion.
