Curried anything is NOT a "biggie" in America.

Yes, Indians have it and uses curry powder here, so do Brit transplants and those who have eaten Indian food and actonce aagin "fashioually like that stuff; however, it is NOT now, nor was it EVER a big deal in American cooking!

Chilli powder? Okay, in Texas and other Southwest states.

OTOH, paprika ( which the vast majority of American mispronounce ) is most assuredly a staple in American cooking; especially now, that deviled eggs are once again fashionable.

Okay, I'm curious--how is it that most Americans mispronounce "paprika," and how is it supposed to be pronounced?

I never found paprika to have much of a taste, but I found some Spanish paprika that is nice and smoky, which is quite good.

My mom always sprinkled paprika on her potatoe salad as well as her deviled eggs.
She used it on several dishes which now escape my memory.
