If you are that interested, go to your public libary and find a cookbook that deals with Morrocan or Indian or Middle Eastern dishes. Here are few to lookup: Onion-Raisin Confit, Spinach and Lentils, Vegetable Dal (an Indian dish, yum! ), Kobi Nu Shaak (Indian Spicy Cabbage). Be careful with this spice, do not let it get into your eyes!

A lot of curries include turmeric as well as other spices. It can also be used to season roasted potatoes, either on it's own or with paprika.

Recipes that call for the use of termeric are any Indian, Moroccan or North African-style dishes. Turmeric is typically paired with other spices such as curry, corriander, and cinnamon. One such popular style dish is a Moroccan dish called tagine. Tagine actually refers to the spice combination refernced above which contains turmeric.
