Ground Turmeric

Ground turmeric is made from dried turmeric root in the ginger family. It adds a deep golden-orange color and an earthy, slightly bitter flavor to savory dishes. The powder disperses evenly in oil and liquid, making it essential in curries, masalas, and ras el hanout. Use it in rice, beans, vegetables, and stews for color and layered spice.
