Kurkuma w proszku
Description
Turmeric powder is an intensely yellow-orange powder with an earthy-bitter taste and a mild, slightly spicy, ginger-like note. It gives dishes a vibrant color and aroma, even in small amounts. It is low in calories, provides fiber, iron, and manganese, and its main active compound—curcumin—exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties; for better absorption, it is advisable to combine it with black pepper and fat. It is typically used in curries, rice, soups, marinades, dressings, golden milk beverages, and to add color to dishes and bread, pairing well with cumin, coriander, garlic, and coconut milk. Store in a sealed, opaque container in a cool, dry place away from light and moisture; avoid using wet measuring spoons to maintain aroma and potency for about 12–24 months.
