Contact SupplierWe are offering turmeric powder.
turmeric (curcuma longa) is a plant of the ginger family. When not used fresh, the rhizomes are boiled for several hours and then dried in hot ovens, after which they are ground into a deep golden-yellow powder commonly used as a spice in curries and other south asian and middle eastern cuisine. It has a distinctly earthy, slightly bitter, slightly hot peppery flavor and a mustardy smell.
in medieval europe, turmeric became known as indian saffron, since it was widely used as an alternative to the far more expensive saffron spice. Turmeric is also a natural wonder, proving beneficial in the treatment of many different health conditions from cancer to alzheimer's disease.
