Use & Care
Use: Turmeric root powder imparts a warm, earthy flavor and vibrant golden color to dishes, perfect for curries, rice, soups, and smoothies. Use 1/4 to 1 tsp per serving, adjusting to taste, often paired with black pepper to enhance absorption. Add to marinades, roasted vegetables, or golden milk for a healthful twist. For topical or wellness uses (e.g., face masks or teas), consult a professional, as it may stain skin or surfaces.
Care: Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry, dark place to preserve flavor and potency for up to 2–3 years. Check freshness by ensuring a strong, aromatic scent; replace if faded. Keep away from moisture to prevent clumping. Handle with care to avoid staining clothes or surfaces, and wash hands thoroughly after use. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
