I grow a tumeric plant in a pot sharing with kesum plants. I wanted to use the tumeric leaves in my cooking but i tak sempat. And it suddenly dried up and turned into brown color @_@.
I ignored this dried up tumeric plant for about a month. And yesterday i cleaned up the pot because i wanna grow ginger. Out of my expectation, there are tumeric roots grow beneath the soil!
The plant look small for me but the roots do develop well. Good job! Frankly, i do nothing for this tumeric plant except watering.
Tadaa...this is the yellow gold that i found beneath the soil
This the pot that i used to grow tumeric....Notice the dried tumeric leaves?
Tadaaa.....The cleaned nice color harvest
The problem is how should i use it in my cooking? i have never use it in my cooking. Beside masak lemak and fry fish, suggest me a recipe please?
Slice and pickle in honey to eat or use in cooking. Or you can slice and dry it well to keep for later use.
ReplyDeleteThanks! pickle is a very good idea! just slice n put in honey?
Deletewow, pot kecil jer tapi banyak isinya.buat jamu asam kunyit pun boleh.

Deletehie olive, tumeric good for our health (woman)...try to amalkan:)
ReplyDeleteHi Amiizaa, Thanks! usually how u take the turmeric? i am interested to make the asam kunyit drink.
DeleteHi Olive,
ReplyDeleteThe pot you used to grow the tumeric is quite small but the roots you get is quite bountiful! So far Mak Aji belum cukup berjaya dengan kunyit, rasanya overwatering, kut - siram yang lain, siram juga kunyit.
Hi Mak AJi, the diameter of the pot is abt 25 cm. in the same pot, i tanam kunyit, kesum & pokok ekor anjing. I water once a day
DeleteWah subur2nye kunyit tu Olive, so beautiful & fresh, x rugi tanam :)
