GROUND TURMERIC

Turmeric is a spice native to Southeast Asia.

It comes from the Curcuma Longa plant whose root (rhizome) is used, dried and ground.
Turmeric has been used since ancient times throughout the Indian continent and in Southeast Asia for religious rituals and to dye priestly robes yellow.

It has been appreciated since ancient times for its properties in traditional Ayurvedic medicine and as a culinary spice to give flavor and color to dishes.
It is still widely used both in Indian medicine and cuisine, and in Chinese medicine, in particular for the ability of curcumin to counteract inflammation within the body.
Turmeric is also the basis of many spice blends, the most famous of which is that of Indian curry.
There are many varieties of the same root and quality also depending on its purity: ROMA turmeric is Premium Quality, so if you are wondering which one to buy, our turmeric is what you are looking for.
The yellow powder that can be purchased from specialized retailers derives from the grinding of the rhizome (ie the root) of the whole turmeric.
Ground turmeric powder retains all its properties and makes it easier to take and mix with dishes, and there is no difference from consuming it whole.
