SwadIndian Spice Turmeric Haldi Powder, 14 Ounce

great product from a quality brand. hard to find locally, especially in any quantity.

Golden Paste (GP) Recipe (from Turmeric Users Group)This recipe may be used for humans as well as animals.Ingredients:' 1/2 cup (125 mls/60gms) turmeric powder' 1 cup water (250 mls) PLUS 1 cup water in reserve, if needed' 1/3 cup (70 mls) cold pressed Olive or Coconut oil' 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper (7.5 mls/3gms)Black pepper contains piperine that significantly increases the bioavailability of turmeric. The oil is an important ingredient and should be a type of oil that does not have inflammatory properties.To prepare the Golden Paste, heat water and turmeric gently in a pan (low heat or a double boiler work nicely). The turmeric powder will absorb water and thicken to a paste. If it becomes too thick, add a little more water.When well heated/hydrated, remove from heat and add the oil and pepper. Stir or whisk to mix well.The Golden Paste will keep for two weeks in the refrigerator or may be frozen if it will not be used within that time. Silicone ice cube trays work really well for freezing the paste into serving sizes.The amount to use depends on individuals. I use the paste to prepare a tea by adding it to a cup of hot water or almond milk. Honey and ginger go well with the tea.I have been feeding turmeric to my horses for some health issues and I’ve been surprised how much they like it. They lick the bottom of their feed dishes clean. The pepper mill in the feed room might seem strange to some.I have been buying this turmeric through a Subscribe and Save subscription. I enjoy the savings and convenience of being able to buy the bulk product. Even though I use this mostly for the Golden Paste, it also tastes good in cooking.

First of all, I love the taste of Tumeric as well as the health benefits. So when I run out of my huge (previous) bag of Tumeric Powder, it was time to find more here on Amazon. After a through search for a huge 14 oz bag on Amazom, I decided to purchase the SWAD Indian Spice Tumeric Powder 14 oz. Well, I am delighted with it.Pros:1 Taste is wonderful and it tastes fresh.2 Low price as it is an add on item.3 Huge bag and I mean HUGE. At 14 oz, this is shipped in a clear bag. It has helpful info, even the website address, etc.4 Long lasting...The last 14 oz bag lasted me over two years and I cook with this often. I even add it to my homemade broths, gravies, veggies and more. I use it so much, this was great for it to last so long.5 The health benefits are excellent. I use Tumeric Powder in my cooking and also take 500 mg csules twice a day. When I had Bronchittis, the Tumeric helped me get rid of it sooner.*** To find out more about health benefits of Tumeric, do a search of Tumeric health benefits. I was amazed at the many benefits.Highly recommended.

I live in Colombia in South America. We do not get Indian spices in the Country. It was a pleasure to see it available on Amazon and order it. The packet was of the highest quality. It added so much flavour to our curries. I wish they had continued to make it available for export to Colombia.

In addition to being a table spice, turmeric is reported to have excellent health benefits. Some people say it has cancer-fighting properties. It's been known to help people with residual nerve pain after a bout of shingles. I pour some on top of my food and mix it in. I like exotic spices, especially curry. Turmeric is pretty strong; quite pungent, almost bitter, but it's okay as long as I also add ginger, curry & cinnamon to my food.Turmeric stains dishes though, and even silverware, but the stains are easy to rub off with a baking soda & water paste. Be especially careful around fabrics. I accidentally got some on a white tee, and the spot it made was bright yellow. I decided to 'dye' the whole garment by soaking it in a turmeric & water solution. Then I put it outside to dry, but the sun bleached it a very pale yellow, so I was happy with that. Luckily it was just something to wear around the house.

I use turmeric on daily basis; it is excellent anti inflammatory ingredient for muscle soreness, joint pain, fatigue, etc. It is also a great anti cancer healer. It tastes great in soups, on salads; I like it on avocado and eating it just like that for a snack or a quick lunch. This is a great price for a high quality turmeric.

Turmeric from India is only what I buy... Just opening the bag the aroma tells you made a good choice... American or any other country waters the turmeric down to almost food coloring.....

My husband and I purchased a nutribullet which recommended several items due to their nutritional benefits. That being said, tumeric is regarded as a five star item. I have to say it is one of the worst tastes either my husband, or myself, has ever experienced. Toothpaste, mouthwash, water, tea, lunch and dinner could not rid our mouths of this foul taste. God bless you if you can stomach it, because it's very good for you. We have vowed to never use it, or speak of it ever again. I do want to add that the product was delivered on time and in good condition, with a great expiration date. I would give the company five stars.
