FAQs

Q: What is the typical curcuminoid content in your Organic Turmeric Powder?

A: Our Organic Turmeric Powder typically contains 2-5% naturally occurring curcuminoids, reflecting the natural range found in the whole turmeric rhizome. For applications requiring higher, standardized curcuminoid levels, we recommend our Organic Turmeric Extract Powder (standardized to 95% curcuminoids).

Q: Does Organic Turmeric Powder fully dissolve in liquids?

A: No, as a whole spice powder, Organic Turmeric Powder is dispersible rather than fully soluble. When mixed into liquids, it forms a suspension, which contributes to the characteristic texture of beverages like “golden milk.”

Q: What’s the typical shelf life and recommended storage for bulk quantities?

A: Our Organic Turmeric Powder typically has a shelf life of 24 months from the manufacturing date when stored in a cool, dark, dry place (below 75°F / 24°C), away from direct sunlight and moisture, in its original sealed, airtight packaging. It should be kept well-sealed to preserve its flavor, color, and potency.

Q: Is your Organic Turmeric Powder non-GMO and allergen-free?

A: Yes, as a certified organic product, our Organic Turmeric Powder is inherently Non-GMO. It is also naturally allergen-free, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary preferences and product formulations.

Q: Can this powder be used as a natural colorant in food products?

A: Absolutely. Its vibrant golden-yellow hue is a key characteristic and makes it an excellent natural colorant for a variety of food and beverage applications, from curries to smoothies and baked goods.
