this isn't nicotine stain on my fingers - it's
turmeric!

last night i cooked with raw turmeric (as opposed to the powedered form found on spice racks) for the first time. interesting ... it looks kind of like ginger, although the flesh seems more orange than i had expected - more like sweet potato in colour. but once you grated it up and get it into the frying pan, it takes of that more familiar brightish yellow tinge ...

there u have it -
turmeric!

A kinda spice of the week spot
