Turmeric - Yellow Curd - Curcuma longa

TurmericCurcuma longa, is a bright yellow rhizome, an underground tribe, or an antler-like rootstock. It looks very similar to the ginger, but it has a deeper yellow color. Like the ginger, this plant belongs to the family of ginger plants, and they cultivate it in the tropical climate of Southeast Asia.

Harvest

After the harvest, they cook, peel and dry turmeric in the sun for about ten days before grind it. While drying, the root loses about three-thirds of its weight. Because it is difficult to grind the dry root, they do not sell them but grind them immediately after the harvest.

The aroma
