Turmeric Powder

Description

Turmeric powder is a bright golden-yellow spice made by grounding the dried rhizomes (underground roots) of the Curcuma longa plant, which belongs to the ginger family. Derived from the underground rhizomes (roots) of the Curcuma longa plant, turmeric is a member of the ginger family. Raw turmeric roots look remarkably like ginger on the outside, but snapping one open reveals a shockingly brilliant, glowing orange flesh. When boiled, dried, and ground down, it creates the fine, golden-yellow powder that acts as the defining color profile of global curry dishes.
