Fresh Turmeric

Fresh Turmeric is the fresh rhizome used as a spice and coloring agent in South Asian and Middle Eastern cuisines; it has an earthy, slightly peppery flavor and is used both grated fresh and dried as a powder in curries, teas and 'golden' beverages. It is low in calories and provides a small amount of carbohydrates and protein while offering 4.8g of fiber per 100g. Nutritionally it is notable as a source of trace minerals like manganese and some vitamin B6, and when consumed fresh or with a bit of fat its active polyphenols (notably curcumin) act as antioxidants and have been studied for anti-inflammatory effects.
