Organic Turmeric

Organic turmeric powder, made from the dried roots of Curcuma longa, is known for its intense aroma and powerful flavor, adding an exotic touch to dishes. Originally from India and Sri Lanka, this chemical-free spice is appreciated for its medicinal properties in Asian and Indian cuisine.  Rich in nutrients beneficial to health, organic turmeric has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. It helps reduce inflammation, improves brain function, promotes heart health, relieves joint pain, and strengthens the digestive system. Curcumin, present in abundance, strengthens brain functions and regulates metabolism thanks to its vitamin B content.  Historically considered a natural treasure, organic turmeric is used for skin care and is appreciated for its anti-aging properties by Indian women. In cooking, this versatile spice is included in savory dishes such as soups, meats, vegetables, and fish. It brings an exotic touch to curries, roasted vegetables, and even hot drinks. For desserts, a pinch of organic turmeric adds flavor and color to cakes, pies, and pancakes.  To fully reveal its flavor, it is recommended to mix organic turmeric powder with a cooking oil at high temperature, thus releasing its aromas before incorporating it into your dishes. A delicious way to explore the versatility and benefits of this multi-faceted spice.
