How Turmeric Powder is prepared?
The fingers and rhizomes of turmeric are boiled separately for 30-40 minutes until bubbles and white fumes come out, then drained and dried in the sun for 10 to 15 days, until they become dry and hard. The dry turmeric then cleaned and polished mechanically in a drum rotated by hand or by power to make powder. It is necessary to care raw turmeric rhizomes freshly unearth for its attractive yellow colour and the characterized aroma. Without proper care turmeric lacks both.
