In case you need a recipe to use up all that turmeric you bought, here's one that gets raves from everyone, and it's so pretty on the plate.
Serves 4
1 c. long grain white rice (you can use basmati if you wish)
1/2 t. turmeric
1 t. salt
2 bay leaves
2 whole garlic cloves, peeled
4-6 whole cardamom pods, cracked
1 stick cinnamon
1 3/4 c. water
Handful of chopped cilantro
Wash rice in cold water till it runs clear. Soak for 30 minutes. Drain well for 10 minutes.
Place all ingredients except cilantro in a rice cooker or saucepan with lid. Bring to boil, and simmer for 15 - 20 minutes until cooked. Remove seeds, garlic and bay leaves. Mix in cilantro.
