Ground turmeric is made by finely milling dried turmeric rhizomes, giving it a distinct warm aroma and a flavour reminiscent of ginger and pepper, while its fine texture distributes evenly through sauces, marinades and spice blends.
- Moroccan tagines: add to chicken or meat with ginger, pepper, saffron, onion and oil, then cook gently until the spices meld into the broth and the sauce reduces
- Fish and chermoula: combine with coriander, parsley, garlic, cumin, sweet paprika and olive oil to season fish and vegetables or prepare a fish tagine
- Couscous and seffa: stir into couscous broth or the chicken and meat seasoning for seffa medfouna, where it pairs naturally with ginger, pepper and saffron
- Rice and pulses: add to rice cooking water or simmer with lentils, chickpeas and beans, pairing it with cumin, coriander and ginger
- Spice blends: mix with cumin, coriander, ginger and pepper for curry blends, or include it in selected Moroccan ras el hanout recipes
Begin with ½ teaspoon, increase the quantity gradually according to the size of the dish, and mix it with the other spices before adding water or stock so its flavour disperses evenly as the dish cooks.
