BLUE TURMERIC POWDER

Curcuma caesia

Blue Turmeric is a fantastically ornamental plant in its own right, with the rhizome turning bright blue near winter. The harvested form has a brilliantly strong bitterness that is useful in East Asian cuisine. Due to its intense strength in flavor, a little dash goes a long way. Quite useful in getting those bitter notes in classic cuisines such as in Vietnamese food, it is also utilized in more traditional medicine cultures in Asia as well.
