about this product
What is Turmeric Powder?
Turmeric Powder is the finely ground rhizome of Curcuma longa, a tropical perennial in the ginger family. The dried rhizome is milled to the bright golden-orange powder that gives curry its color, known in Hindi as haldi and in Tamil as manjal. The gold comes from curcumin, the principal curcuminoid.
About the plant
Turmeric has been grown across South and Southeast Asia for thousands of years, both as a daily kitchen spice and as a documented herb of Ayurvedic tradition, and it doubles as a natural dye and a ceremonial pigment. In the kitchen it is the central spice of curry and the color behind golden milk; Indian cooking has long paired it with fat and with black pepper, whose piperine is well documented to increase curcumin absorption.

Herb Stomp (Sandy) is BY FAR the best Herb and Kratom store I have ever been to. In my 2.5 years of using Kratom, I have never been to a place as helpful as this! The employees are so so helpful! Usually when buying Kratom, I’m met with grumpy head shop owners who seem to want me to either spend out of my budget, or…
Awesome, knowledgeable staff. Great selection and quality of herbs and ethnobotanicals. I also appreciate that testing is done for contaminants and potency on certain herbs. In 8 years coming here I have yet to purchase anything stale or otherwise questionable quality. We technically *could* ask for more in a local…
