This bright yellow spice that we hide in our little spice boxes in kitchens is an underrated herb. Yes, you guessed it right we are talking about Turmeric or Haridra or Haldi, whatever you call this miraculous herb from Ancient India. It belongs to the Curcumin species or curcumin longa plant, a member of the ginger family, Zingiberaceae. Most people use turmeric for its color, but it has many fantastic health benefits.
