Turmeric is a plant that reaches up to 1 m (3 ft 3 in) tall. Highly branched, yellow to orange, cylindrical, aromatic rhizomes are found. The most important chemical components of turmeric are a group of compounds called curcuminoids, which include curcumin (diferuloylmethane), demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin. The best-studied compound is curcumin, which constitutes 3.14% (on average) .  The rhizomes are boiled for about 30–45 minutes and then sundried.

Usage
It is one of the key ingredients in many Asian dishes, mostly used in savory dishes, but is used in some sweet dishes.
It is a significant ingredient in most commercial curry powders.
Turmeric is widely used as a spice in South Asian and Middle Eastern cooking, sometimes used as an agent to impart a golden yellow color.
Europe, turmeric became known as Indian saffron because it was widely used as an alternative to the far more expensive saffron spice.
