Turmeric is a delicious, fragrant spice, that’s packed with health benefits, but have you ever tried it fresh? Up until I made this soup, I’d only ever used the dried, ground version (which I absolutely LOVE!), but there’s something even more earthy about the fresh version.

Carrot and ginger are already a match made in heaven, so adding a bit of fresh turmeric into the mix creates another dimension of flavour.

The turmeric also serves as an extra colour boost, making this soup look extra inviting! I mean, who wouldn’t want to eat this bowl of healthy sunshine? Squeeze on a little fresh lemon juice at the end for an extra juicy kick and you’re good to go!

  3. Hi!

    I’m really excited about making this soup! Was wondering if you’d recommend adding any dried or fresh herbs, I’m curious about it but don’t want to throw off the balance if it’s perfect as is.

    Thanks!
