Before the powder, there is the root. Turmeric Shavings from Place des Épices are organic turmeric root from India, dried and cut into shavings. A common ingredient in curries and curry powders, turmeric is widely used in Indian cuisine to color dishes such as masalas, tandoori masala, mukhavas (a mixture of seeds taken at the end of a meal), and vadouvan. It also goes into spice blends such as West Indian colombo, garam masala, and ras el hanout. Infuse a few shavings in hot water with ginger and lemon.
