FRESH TURMERIC PICKLE

Fresh turmeric is available in winter.  The season is now on and you will get plenty of fresh turmeric now.  

Pickles are my weakness and I always try with any ingredients I feel it is right for the pickle.  I had made the pickle several times but somehow, the same was not posted.  Now it is available, everyone can enjoy this pickle.

Turmeric has got many medicinal properties and helps in curing various diseases.  One must introduce this ingredients whenever it is available in their menu. 

The turmeric pickle can be made with or without spice.  Here I am sharing with you with the spice and oil.  This pickle can be used instantly since we are finely chopping the same and the hot oil will make it bit softer to eat it instantly.
