Lakadong Turmeric (High Curcumin >8%), Certified Organic

Lakadong Turmeric is a beautiful bright golden-yellow color that’s easily substituted for other turmeric varieties when cooking. Here are some ideas:

• Add to cooking grains, legumes, soups and stews
• Add to a lassi or milk shake, or to warm milk or non-dairy milk along with ginger, cinnamon, cardamom, a dash of black pepper and optional sweetener of choice
• Color natural frostings (cream cheese and honey, for example) with just a pinch of Lakadong Turmeric
• Blend with ginger, cumin, coriander and hing for a flavorful spice that’s delicious with vegetables, grains and meats
• Make Lakadong Turmeric tea by simmering 2 cups water with ¼ teaspoon Lakadong Turmeric for 10 minutes; strain and add lemon or natural sweetener of choice. If desired, add cinnamon, ginger, cream, milk, or coconut milk. For a quick and healthy “pick-me-up”, mix ½ teaspoon honey with ¼ teaspoon Lakadong Turmeric in a cup of warm water.
• Stir-fry shrimp or scallops in a spicy blend of Lakadong Turmeric, cayenne, salt, minced garlic and scallions
• Add a pinch to cream sauce for vegetables or pasta
• Add to a favorite vinaigrette, mayonnaise or a creamy salad dressing
• Add a pinch to banana, rice or coconut pudding
• Mix with dried or fresh parsley; sprinkle over poached eggs, or add to scrambled eggs or frittatas
• Add to meatloaf or meatballs
• Add to tumeric to barbeque sauce for basting meats like chicken, steak and chops
• Add a little to a homemade granola recipe along with golden Hunza raisins for a sunshiny treat
• Add a healthy pinch to homemade puris, chapattis and tortillas
