Ground turmeric turns oil a deep golden yellow the moment it hits a hot pan, releasing its earthy aroma straight away. This fine, bright powder colours everything it touches, from rice to sauces, and forms the backbone of many spice blends. Stir it into curries, dhals and stews for colour and warmth, or add a pinch to rice before boiling for a golden finish. It works well in marinades for chicken or vegetables, and is a key ingredient in many spice mixes used in Indian and South Asian cooking. A small amount goes a long way, so start with a teaspoon and build up to taste. Ground turmeric is also handy in soups, lentil dishes and scrambled eggs, where it adds colour without overpowering other flavours. Mix it with black pepper and a little oil to help release its flavour more fully when cooking. Keep the jar sealed tightly and store in a cool, dark cupboard away from direct sunlight, as heat and light cause the colour and aroma to fade over time. Used within a reasonable period, it keeps its vivid colour and earthy taste, making it a useful staple for regular curry nights and everyday cooking.
