  2. I put turmeric in almost everything, every dish that I cook, even my breakfast Ksshi cereal flakes & oatmeal ( along with cinammon & a little red
    pepper ). Even two-year-old Harper would say, "Bite, Nana," and she LIKED it. Turmeric has so many health benefits but I never saw it fresh & beautiful like yours. I always take it - & many other Indian spices & seeds when I return home. They are a fraction of the cost here.

  17. I've cooked with it and knew about how good it is for health, but never saw it growing! Very interesting. Can you preserve it past the growing season ?

    1. We preserve the rhizomes by leaving it in the soil. It will lie preserved until the next growing season.
