Diaspora Spice Co. - Pragati Turmeric (Powder) 48g Tin - Oakland, CA

Not all turmeric is created equal. Pragati Turmeric from Diaspora Spices is a completely different league. Grown by the Kasaraneni family on their third-generation farm—amidst marigolds, bananas, and black rice—this heirloom turmeric is nurtured regeneratively, with care and attention that makes your average turmeric taste almost flat by comparison.

Mr. Prabhu Kasaraneni, a self-taught organic farmer, began growing Pragati turmeric in 2015 with guidance from the Indian Institute of Spice Research. While his methods were initially questioned by neighbors, the results speak for themselves: deeply fragrant, vibrantly colored, and rich in flavor, this turmeric elevates every dish it touches. This was the spice that inspired Diaspora Spices from the very beginning, and it remains a fan favorite for its bold, nuanced, unmistakably fresh taste. Use it in curries, roasted vegetables, golden lattes, or anywhere you want flavor that truly sings. Once you try it, you’ll never go back to ordinary turmeric.
