Ground Turmeric Supplier in the UK
As a ground turmeric supplier in the UK, the team at Brusco always get asked if ‘ground turmeric is the same as fresh turmeric’.
Ground turmeric and fresh turmeric are not exactly the same, although they come from the same root and share many of the same properties. Ground turmeric is the dried, powdered version of turmeric root.
It’s finely ground and easier to store and use in recipes. While fresh and ground turmeric can be used interchangeably in many recipes, they offer different flavour profiles and intensities. Fresh turmeric is more vibrant and aromatic, while ground turmeric is more convenient and widely available.
