Haldi Powder (Ground Turmeric)

Widely cultivated across India, with significant production in States like Telangana, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Odisha, Haldi imparts an earthy, slightly bitter, and warm flavour with a characteristic peppery aroma, and it lends a vibrant yellow-orange colour to dishes. This powder is an essential ingredient in most Indian Curries and preparations. Beyond its culinary uses, turmeric, particularly its active compound curcumin, is believed to be having potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, traditionally used to aid digestion, boost immunity and promote skin health.
