   Whew!  Glad i am not losing my home cookin superpowers.

   I agree, and that is one thing i liked about the slow cooker curry   
   recipe you posted.  It called for specific spices and not a pre-made   
   mix.  When i was a kid they only sold bottles of yellow   
   "curry powder."  It was generic and i still see it sold in spice   
   aisles and bulk bins.   
      
   The result is so much better when i roast whole spices and grind them   
   "fresh" for what i am cooking.   
      
   Here's a Blueberry Strudel recipe.  When i was a kid, a German woman   
   sold homemade apple strudel every weekend at the Saturday market, and   
   it was affordable.  I'd treat myself to it once or twice a year.

         Title: Blueberry Strudel   
    Categories: Desserts   
         Yield: 8 Servings   
      
       1/4 c  Honey   
       1/8 ts Salt   
       1/4 ts Allspice   
       1/4 ts Cinnamon   
         2 ts Lemn juice   
         2 tb Arrowroot   
         1 tb Unbleached white flour   
         2 c  Fresh blueberries   
         8    Phyllo dough leaves   
         3 tb Butter; melted   
         1 ts Maple sugar   
      
     Preheat oven to 375?F.   
      
     Put honey in a 1 qt saucepan over low heat. Add salt, allspice,   
     cinnamon, and lemon juice, and stir well. When honey begins to boil,   
     add arrowroot and flour. Cook until thick. Add blueberries, stir   
     well, and cook 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.   
      
     Lay ot a sheet of phyllo dough on a counter. Lightly brush with melted   
     butter. Lay another sheet of phyllo on top of the first piece and   
     again brush with butter. Repeat 2 more times. Spread half the   
     blueberry filling evenly along the shorter side of the dough, leaving   
     a 2" border on either side and the end closest to you. Fold ends of   
     dough in over the filling. Now gently roll the dough up. Be careful   
     not to roll the dough up too tightly or it will burst when baking   
     (but too loose a roll will harm the strudel appearance).   
      
     Repeat this procedure once more, using up the remaining sheets of   
     phyllo dough and filling. Set strudels on a buttered cookie sheet and   
     brush them with remaining butter. Sprinkle tops with maple sugar.   
     Bake 20 minutes. Cool 30 minutes before serving, and then cut into   
     slices at an angle.
