Turmeric Root, Cut – (4 oz.)

$13.00

Known for its bright orange-yellow color, turmeric root is employed as both an earthy spice as well as a dye. For thousands of years, turmeric root has been used in Ayurveda for its healthful properties. Turmeric can be used to flavor foods like curries and rice dishes or beverages like golden milk and turmeric chai. It has a mildly sweet aroma and a warm, peppery, slightly bitter taste with ginger and nut-like undertones. Turmeric is said to support healthy joint mobility.

 

Turmeric, also known as Curcuma longa has a warm, bitter taste and is frequently used to flavor or color curry powders, mustards, butters, and cheeses. Because curcumin and other chemicals in turmeric might decrease swelling, it is often used to treat conditions that involve pain and inflammation.
