Your best bet is to contact the manufacturer directly.Herbalislhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310642467819954787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3155821042531904908.post-80688833142047185122011-04-17T04:40:00.353-04:002011-04-17T04:40:00.353-04:00Dear Lisl,

You made my day right back with you...Thanks Leslie! You made my day right back with your caring and sincerity. You know that piece of fresh root in the photo? Well, funny story: <br /><br />They always carry whole turmeric at Whole Foods Market,(or they used to anyway) and for this article when I originally submitted it to the magazine, I drove the 40 minutes out there to purchase some root for the photo (and to eat!).<br />When I got there, no turmeric. I searched all around where the display basket had been full a few days before. Then I saw it. A teeny-tiny, wee, itty-bitty piece of root no bigger than my pinky nail. I pocketed it. (I KNOW!) <br />That eeinsy-wiensy piece of turmeric is the one in the photo you see above along with some powder I had. That camera got a close up that really made me glad, and that turmeric root has a such bold personality that you'd never know how small a piece she was.Herbalislhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310642467819954787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3155821042531904908.post-43004121439739709842009-11-17T19:28:21.689-05:002009-11-17T19:28:21.689-05:00beeeautiful lisl:) i learned quite a bit i didn...beeeautiful lisl:) i learned quite a bit i didn't know about one of my favorite spices! i think i will follow your advise and try and find a source other than the grocery store. would love to have a piece of actual root to use:)i like the idea of adding a bit to bread dough also. should give it a bit of color i would imagine, besides for the reasons you mentioned:) you did it again, made my day with a wonderful article. thank you lisl:)Comfrey Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01135637912946395843noreply@blogger.com
