McCormick Gourmet Organic Ground Turmeric is sourced from the highest-grade turmeric which has the brightest yellow color and deepest flavor. Its vivid color, sharp flavor and subtle citrusy aroma are the power behind curry powder, mustard, pickles and relishes. Around the globe, cooks use turmeric, a member of the ginger root family, for color and flavor in stews, rice pilaf, lentils and vegetables. Moroccans add it, along with other spices, to slow-cooked tagines. Turmeric’s golden hue and warm, earthy taste is essential in Indian and Indonesian curries. Add a pinch or two to homemade pickles and relishes for appealing color. Turmeric and coconut milk are delicious together – try in soups, smoothies, Golden Milk and turmeric lattes.
