Its robust rhizome, dried and ground into a powder, has multifaceted applications dating back millennia. In Hindu rituals, turmeric holds sacred significance, boasting a pungent, slightly spicy flavor. Beyond culinary use, it serves as a dye for textiles and food, alongside its recognized therapeutic value.
