Equipment

Ingredients

  • about 4 ounces fresh turmeric root

Instructions

  • Use a vegetable peeler or a paring knife to remove the skin from the turmeric root.
  • Then use a microplane zester to grate it finely. It's very easily added to all sorts or recipes in this form. (If you don't have one, you can finely chop it with a Chef's knife.)
