January 12th is National Curried Chicken Day

John-Bryan Hopkins

Here are today’s five thing to know about Curried Chicken:

  1. The chief spices found in most curry powders are turmeric, coriander, and cumin.
  2. The word curry is derived from a South-Asian word Kori ;a sauce with cooked meat or fish
  3. A hen can lay about 300 eggs each year.
  4. So that the yoke does not stick to the egg shell, a mother hen turns it egg about 50 times each day.
  5. There are more chickens on Earth than there are humans.
