Kunyit - Turmeric

A vivid yellow root of the ginger family, this has a very emphatic flavor. Scrape the skin before using. If fresh trumeric is not available, substitute 1 tablespoon of powdered turmeric for 100g of the fresh root. To make turmeric water, peel about 8 inches of fresh turmeric root, slice finely and combine with 1 cup of water. Process in a blender until very fine, or pound the sliced turmeric in a mortar and then mix with water and let stand for a couple of minutes. Strain through a sieve, pressing firmly with the back of a spoon to extract all the juice. Store in a jar in the refrigerator. If fresh turmeric is not available, combine 4 tablespoons of powdered turmeric with 1 cup of water and mix well.
