Fresh turmeric 100g

500017

This fresh turmeric rhizome, selected by the Rungis Fruit and Vegetable Workshop, is a prized ingredient for professionals in the culinary and health sectors. Characterised by its vibrant orange flesh and antioxidant properties, it imparts a woody, slightly bitter flavour and an intense natural colour to culinary preparations. Unlike its powdered form, fresh turmeric offers aromatic freshness and a higher essential oil content, essential for technical and authentic cooking. Professional uses, preparation and storage: ► Culinary applications: Fresh turmeric is ideal for naturally flavouring and colouring curries, broths, fresh vegetable juices or marinades for fish and white meats. ► Use in catering kitchens: It is used grated or infused to impart a unique aromatic and visual signature to sauces, pilaf rice or daring pastry creations. ► Production optimisation: The 100g pack allows for precise measurement and minimises waste, perfectly adapting to the specific needs of professional kitchens to ensure optimal freshness with every use. ► Preparation: After being carefully brushed or peeled, the rhizome can be finely chopped, freshly grated or cut into thin strips. Caution: its natural pigment is very potent and may stain utensils and hands. ► Storage: To maintain its firmness, fresh turmeric should be stored in the fridge's vegetable drawer, preferably wrapped in kitchen paper to regulate moisture.
