Badia Turmeric Ground Organic Spice, 7 oz

Organic turmeric root, dried and ground to a fine, deeply pigmented powder. Earthy, slightly bitter, with the warm musk that defines South Asian curry pastes, Middle Eastern rice, and the golden milk tradition. Curcumin — the compound behind turmeric's color and reputation — is fat-soluble, so this spice performs best when bloomed in oil or paired with coconut milk and a crack of black pepper.

How to Use Bloom a teaspoon in ghee or oil at the start of any curry, dal, or stew. Stir into rice as it simmers for color and warmth. Whisk into warm milk with ginger, cinnamon, honey, and pepper for golden milk. Rub onto cauliflower, chickpeas, or salmon before roasting. A pinch lifts scrambled eggs, lentil soup, and salad dressings.

Pairs With Cumin, coriander, ginger, garlic, black pepper, cinnamon, cardamom, mustard seed, coconut milk, and yogurt.

Cuisines Foundational in Indian curries, dals, and pickles. Essential in Persian and Middle Eastern rice dishes, North African tagines, and Southeast Asian curry pastes. Staining is real — protect light counters and wooden spoons.
