Description
Planet Organic Turmeric is the dried root of Curcuma longa, ground to a fine golden powder and packed as a single ingredient with no fillers and no additives. It comes as a 300 g recyclable tub, the catering size of the brand's turmeric rather than the small shaker. Turmeric has a peppery, slightly bitter aroma and it is the colour and the earthy base note in most commercial curry powders, so it goes into curries, dals, rice, pickles and relishes at the point where the ground spices meet the hot oil.
Product Strengths
- Colours and seasons curries, dals, soups and rice with an earthy, peppery warmth.
- Goes in with the onion and the other ground spices at the start of a curry, so the raw edge cooks off.
- A very small amount in the cooking water tints a cup of rice a soft yellow.
- Stirs into pickles, relishes, spice rubs and dressings.
- Ground certified organic turmeric root and nothing else, with no fillers and no additives.
- Certified organic by Australian Certified Organic, certification number 443.
- Gluten free.
- Comes as the 300 g recyclable tub.
Suitable For / Not Suitable For
Suitable for: everyday cooking, and for vegan and vegetarian diets, since the only ingredient is the ground root. Gluten free.
Not suitable for: Anyone allergic or sensitive to an ingredient on the pack.
Suggested Use
Add turmeric early. Stir it in with the onion and the other ground spices and let it cook in the oil for a minute before the liquid goes in, which takes the raw edge off the flavour.
A very small amount in the water for one cup of rice gives a soft yellow colour. It also goes into pickles, relishes, spice rubs and salad dressings. Start with a little and taste as you go, because the flavour is earthy and slightly bitter and the powder stains hands, boards and cloth.
Ingredients
- Certified organic turmeric root powder (Curcuma longa).

suggested dose
Certified organic turmeric can be added to pickles and relishes. Try adding a very small amount of organic turmeric to the water when cooking 1 cup of rice. This imparts a slight yellow colour and is a cheaper option than saffron.
