But is this an original illustration from the book or something added
for this publication?
Either way this is a mis-indexing. "Curry" powder is a mis-
understanding by the British of the spice mixes of India, which in any
case, is much later than the original publication of Forme of Cury. I
don't remember what "Cury" means in medieval English but it has little
or nothing to do with the so-called Indian curry mixes.

I suspect it is curry because they have the book indexed under:
