Turmeric belongs to the ginger family. Turmeric powder is derived from whole turmeric fingers. The fingers are first steamed and then dried. Once it has dried thoroughly, it is ground to a fine powder. Turmeric powder is known for its purity, taste and medicinal qualities. It has anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The turmeric we supply is natural and fresh and has a pale yellow colour. It is free from rancidity and mustiness.
