Turmeric is obtained in powdered form by the rootstalks of turmeric plants. Rootstalks are called rhizomes. Turmeric plants are native to South Asia. Turmeric is usually used in powdered form, but in some occasions the dried rootstalks (fingers) are used. In India it is used in cooking as a form of spice, in medicine, in cosmetics and in rituals. It is the most important ingredient in Indian cooking. 

Turmeric rhizomes will be carefully plucked from the ground and after that fingers will be separated. Boiled or steamed fingers will be dried and polished for marketing. Colour of the finger determines the price. G.O.S.P provides good quality turmeric fingers, slices and powder.
