Black Turmeric / Kali Haldi

How To Use

Black turmeric, also known as Kali Haldi, is a rare variety of turmeric with a blackish-brown outer skin and a bright yellow interior. It is known for its medicinal properties and is often used in Ayurvedic and traditional medicine. Here are a few ways to use black turmeric:

Tea: Add a small piece of black turmeric root to boiling water and let it steep for 5-10 minutes. You can add honey or lemon to taste, if desired.

Spice blend: Grind black turmeric into a powder and use it as a spice in your cooking. It has a slightly bitter taste and is often used in curries, stews, and soups.

Face mask: Mix black turmeric powder with a little water or yogurt to form a paste. Apply the paste to your face and leave on for 10-15 minutes before rinsing off with warm water. Black turmeric is believed to have skin-clarifying and brightening properties.

Hair care: Mix black turmeric powder with a carrier oil such as coconut oil to create a hair mask. Apply the mask to your scalp and hair, leave on for 30 minutes, and then rinse off. Black turmeric is believed to promote hair growth and improve hair texture.

As with any herbal supplement, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional before using black turmeric, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or have any underlying health conditions.
