Storage
To maximize freshness, store in a dark airtight container in a cool dry place. Once the spice is ground, flavor deteriorates with exposure to light, heat, air, humidity and time.
Refills
Due to the naturally corrosive property of turmeric, it reacts with plastic bags making them sticky and/or producing holes. So, we do not offer refill bags for turmeric.
