Product Description
• Product Overview: Haldi Powder (Selam) is made from turmeric associated with Salem in Tamil Nadu, a region well known for its quality turmeric. It has a rich golden-yellow colour and a warm, earthy fragrance. This finely ground powder is ready to use in daily cooking, pooja, marinades and traditional recipes.
• Ingredients: Turmeric.
• Flavour & Aroma: Selam turmeric is valued for its deep golden colour and mild bitterness. The flavour is warm, earthy and slightly peppery without any heat, so it works smoothly across all types of dishes while adding a beautiful colour.
• Best Uses & Recipe Ideas:
◦ Dal and sabzi: add a pinch for colour and flavour in daily home cooking.
◦ Golden milk (haldi doodh): whisk into hot milk with a pinch of pepper and a spoon of honey.
◦ Rice and khichdi: gives a pleasant yellow shade to rice dishes like pulao and lemon rice.
◦ Marinades and batters: colour pakora batter, fish fry and tandoori marinades.
◦ Pickles: used in lemon and mango pickles.
• Traditional Use & Wellness Note: Haldi has deep cultural importance in Indian homes. From daily cooking to wedding ceremonies, it is regarded as an auspicious ingredient. Haldi doodh has long been a family favourite in winter. Please check with your doctor if you take medication or have a health condition before using turmeric in large amounts.
• Cooking Tips: Use a measured pinch, about a quarter to half a teaspoon for a family-size dish. Fry it briefly in oil rather than dry heat. To prevent stains, wash utensils and counters promptly after use.
• Quality & Purity: Haldi Powder (Selam) is carefully processed and packed to give you a fine, aromatic product with natural colour and fragrance. We do not add artificial colours, artificial flavours or fillers, so the taste and aroma you get come only from the ingredients listed above.
• Storage & Shelf Life: Store Haldi Powder (Selam) in a clean, dry, airtight container away from heat, sunlight and moisture. Always use a dry spoon and close the lid tightly after use. Powdered spices lose their aroma faster than whole spices, so use it within the best-before period for the best taste.
• Kitchen Handy Tip: For consistent results, measure with a dry spoon rather than shaking the pack over a hot pan, because steam can enter the container and cause lumps.
• Dietary Suitability: Plant-based and free from artificial colours and added sugar, Haldi Powder (Selam) is suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets. It is made to be used in normal food quantities and fits easily into everyday Indian home cooking.
• Usage Guide: begin with a quarter to half a teaspoon per serving and increase gradually according to your taste and the recipe. Powdered spices dissolve quickly into oil and liquids, so a small quantity is often enough to flavour a whole pot.
• Bulk & Gifting: a practical monthly refill for busy kitchens, and a dependable choice for caterers, restaurants and home chefs who want the same taste every time. It also works well in a self-assembled spice box for gifting.
• Why Choose This: A practical choice for busy kitchens, since it is ready to use with no grinding or cleaning required. Suitable for homes, restaurants, caterers and tiffin services, and available in pack sizes to match your cooking habits.
