Detailed Description
Turmeric (Curcuma longa), native to India, is a tropical perennial plant in the same family as ginger. Historically turmeric's use in culinary recipes dates back thousands of years. Sometimes referred to as Indian saffron in ancient texts, Turmeric's use continues to be widespread. Today, in addition to a variety of culinary uses, turmeric can be found in tea and coffee lattes, smoothies, tonics, stocks, sauces, curries and more.

The flavor of turmeric is distinct, pungent and warming and it adds a bright orange/yellow color to your recipes. It pairs well with cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, lemongrass, cloves and black pepper. It also works well with dairy products such as cheese, yogurt and butter as well as coconut milk.

Brewing: Use 1 tsp. of the root per 1 cup of boliling water and steep for 5 minutes.
