Wow, that market looks amazing - a great place to stock up on beans, spices and other supplies. I have some turmeric and I haven't really been using it, though I have intended to. I would love some advice on what to add it to. Rice makes sense, for example, but I could use some other ideas! I will look up some recipes.
I wish I could shop at that market!

Thank you very much for your kind comment and generous support. So glad you like Indian spices; I am just beginning to get more accustomed to these strong spices. Thai food use much less spices!
I put ground turmeric in my bean stew and spaghetti sources; just half a tea spoon to add colour and some antioxidant.
Hi, @jayna! I got this online maybe 3 or 4 years ago and kept it as a reminder!
Ground turmeric
Blend it into smoothies: use 1 teaspoon for a subtle turmeric hit. Add up to 2 teaspoons for a more intense flavor. Include coconut oil in your smoothie to boost the turmeric absorption.
Add 1-2 teaspoons to any soup recipe. It will add a deep golden hue to it.
A natural in curries, turmeric brings warm flavors to any curry or stew. When you sauté the vegetables in oil, add in 1 teaspoon of ground turmeric.
Add a color pop to rice dishes by adding ½ teaspoon turmeric to the water when cooking the rice.
Boost the healthiness of mac and cheese by stirring in ½ teaspoon of turmeric to your cheese sauce. This works for both homemade and boxed varieties.
When brewing regular tea, add in ¼ teaspoon ground turmeric to your mug before pouring in the hot water. You can also simply combine ground turmeric with hot water for a tisane.
Make golden pancakes: Add ½ teaspoon of ground turmeric to your dry pancake mix. The color is amazing!
Make a hummus topper: Combine ¼ teaspoon ground turmeric with 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame seeds and sprinkle over hummus.
Hope this helps!

You are the best, @dswigle! Thank you very much. I am going to start using it (finally). I have been feeling stiff in the joints with the change of seasons, and I'm hoping it will help! These are awesome suggestions. I appreciate it!
You are so welcome!
