Turmeric is an extremely familiar spice for all of us, but do you know what components are found in turmeric roots and what its effects are? Let’s explore turmeric roots and turmeric starch together with PEROMA through the following article.
INTRODUCTION TO TURMERIC
Turmeric plants are widely cultivated in some Asian countries. They are herbaceous plants with large, tuberous roots, often branching into multiple bulbs, ranging from dark yellow to reddish-yellow in color and emitting a strong aroma. Turmeric root has been known as a medicinal substance for over 5,000 years. In Vietnam, turmeric is grown throughout the country, from coastal plains to high mountainous regions above 1500 meters. In rocky plateaus like Dong Van, Meo Vac (Ha Giang), Sin Ho, Phong Tho (Lai Chau), turmeric still thrives well.
WHAT IS TURMERIC STARCH?
Turmeric starch is derived from fresh turmeric roots. The turmeric roots are thoroughly washed using a centrifuge, and then they are ground into a fine powder using a grinder. The resulting mixture is then blended with water and distilled, and then filtered.
This distillation process is repeated multiple times. As a result, turmeric oil, fiber, residue, and resin are removed. Finally, pure turmeric starch is obtained. The next step involves pouring the mixture into a settling tank, where the pure yellow turmeric starch settles at the bottom. It is then collected and dried either through exposure to air or by using a drying machine, resulting in golden turmeric starch.
