Nutritional Information
Turmeric is used in small quantities as a spice, so its main contribution to a dish is color and flavor rather than significant nutrition. Consult the package for exact nutrition facts and allergen notes.

Cooking Suggestions and Serving Ideas
• Tadka and dal: add about a quarter teaspoon to hot oil, or to dal while it simmers, for an even golden color.
• Sambar and rasam: stir in with tamarind and sambar powder for the classic South Indian look and aroma.
• Lemon rice and pulihora: combine with mustard seeds, curry leaves and peanuts for bright yellow rice.
• Marinades: mix with chili powder, salt and lemon juice to coat fish, chicken or paneer before frying.
• Pickles and dry sabzis: add to mango or lime pickle and to dishes like aloo gobi and cabbage poriyal.
Tip: cook turmeric in oil for a few seconds to mellow its raw taste, and use steel or glass bowls since it can stain plastic.
