Vivid, earthy, anti-inflammatory. Fresh turmeric from Pigface Farm in Mororo, grown chemical-free by Peta. This is turmeric as it's meant to be.
Fresh turmeric is a different ingredient entirely to the powder in your spice rack. It's brighter, more complex, more alive - earthy and peppery with a warmth that builds slowly.
Peta grows this at Pigface Farm in Mororo using regenerative, chemical-free methods. It arrives to you with soil on it and colour that will stain your fingers (and your chopping board, and your tea towel fair warning).
Worth every bit of it.
How to use: Grate or finely slice into curries, soups, stir-fries and rice. Juice with carrot, ginger and orange for a golden tonic. Blend into smoothies, golden lattes and dressings. Use in turmeric scrambled eggs, roasted cauliflower, or a warming lentil dal. Pairs beautifully with ginger, black pepper (which enhances absorption), coconut milk and citrus.
How to store: Keep in the fridge in a paper bag or wrapped loosely for up to 3 weeks. Freeze whole and grate from frozen - keeps for months. Or slice thinly, dry in a low oven and blitz into your own turmeric powder.
