In daily life, powdered turmeric, noted for its warm and spicy flavour, is frequently utilised. No food in India, whether vegetarian or not, would be complete without turmeric powder.

The best turmeric in the world is Indian turmeric, sometimes referred to as "Indian Saffron" because to its rich yellow hue. The aroma of ginger or orange can be detected in turmeric. It tastes unpleasant and strong. Since 600 BC, turmeric has been used as a pigment, medicinal, and flavouring due to its vivid yellow hue. India alone produces almost all of the world's turmeric and consumes roughly 80% of it. One of the essential components that gives many curries their colour and flavour is turmeric.

Depending on where in India they are grown, there are many distinct varieties of turmeric available. The most well-known and in high demand worldwide are the five types grown in India: Nizambad, Madras (Cuddapa), Rajapuri, Erode, and Allepy.
