FARM Bland Ginger (Root not Redhead)

[Randy in Arizona]

I have some turmeric grown from some store bought rhizomes.
Wanted to use some for cooking today, but the home grown stuff had no flavor.
WTF?

Turmeric doesn't have a very strong flavor. How did you prepare it? Dried?

Raw turmeric tastes like a bad carrot.

Turmeric isn't Ginger. Sorry to break it to you.

Yup and Turmeric is suppose to taste bland by comparison to Ginger. It's still good though.

Sorry!
I screwed up, I was talking about ginger.
Not too sure how turmeric got put in there.
It is the ginger that had no flavor.
