Turmeric is a flowering plant, Curcuma longa of
the ginger family, Zingiberaceae, the roots of which are used in cooking. The
plant is a perennial, rhizomatous, herbaceous plant native to the Indian
subcontinent and Southeast Asia, that requires temperatures between 20 and 30

following season and some for consumption. The rhizomes are used fresh or
boiled in water and dried, after which they are ground into a deep
orange-yellow powder commonly used as a coloring and flavoring agent in many
Asian cuisines, especially for curries, as well as for dyeing, characteristics
