Renowned for its vibrant golden color, Organic Turmeric Powder, also known as Indian saffron and yellow ginger, is a beloved ingredient for those who love to cook or savor Asian and Indian dishes. Ground from fair trade Indian Curcuma longa root, a colorful, fragrant ginger family rhizome, this turmeric powder is a slightly bitter and earthy addition to a variety of foods and beverages. Tumeric, an herbaceous perennial, is native to India and Southeast Asia and features large leaves, tubular flowers, and tuberous roots. Thriving on tropical climates' warmth and humidity, it achieves a full-grown height of one meter. Whether you choose to add turmeric spice to rice dishes, soups, stews or teas, tinctures, and gargling aids, it imbues your final product with a palate-pleasing depth and dimension and an appealing golden hue.
