TURMERIC POWDER

Turmeric is the dried root of the plant Curcuma longa. Turmeric's flavor resembles a combination of ginger and pepper. It is native to southern Asia, requiring temperatures between 20 and 30°C (68 and 86 °F) and a considerable amount of annual rainfall to thrive. Plants are gathered annually for their rhizomes and propagated from some of those rhizomes in the following season. When not used fresh, the rhizomes are boiled for about 30-45 minutes and then dried in hot ovens, sliced and after then ground into a deep-orange-yellow powder widely used as a main spice in all Asian cuisines and due to its deep bright color it is used for dyeing, and to impart color to mustard condiments.

GINGER POWDER

Dried ginger is nothing but fresh ginger, which has undergone a drying process. The fresh rhizomes are soaked in water overnight after which the outer peel is carefully removed using a knife or a peeler. They are washed again and then sun-dried on mats or barbecues for around a week. During this period, they are turned periodically. The end result is a pale white dried ginger. Many a times, dried ginger is bleached with calcium carbonate to get a whitish coating, but this is unnecessary and better avoided. When this dried ginger is powdered in a mixer, we get dried ginger powder. It is a fine off-whitish powder, which has a strong aroma and slightly pungent flavour. Ginger is hot in nature and it is a perfect drink for cold winter mornings, although many prefer it over coffee and tea in the summers too. It is combined with cardamom, cinnamon, fennel and cloves to make tea masala, which is brewed along with tea to get a strong flavour. Dried ginger powder is used as a spice all over Asia, which are used in gravies, curries, marinades, stews etc.
