Turmeric fingers are the whole, finger-shaped dried rhizomes of the turmeric plant, while turmeric powder is the finely ground, processed form of these fingers. Fingers are the raw, natural form that retain more essential oils, nutrients, and curcumin, making them highly valued for freshness and long shelf life. They are often used in bulk trade, cooking, dyeing, and further processing. In contrast, turmeric powder is produced for convenient use in daily cooking, supplements, and spice blends. It has a bright yellow-orange appearance but contains slightly lower essential oil levels due to processing and grinding.
In Hindi turmeric powder is called as haldi.

A turmeric finger is the whole, unprocessed, and dried rhizome (underground stem) of the turmeric plant (Curcuma longa). It is easily recognized by its vibrant yellow-orange color, earthy aroma, and rich curcumin content—the active compound responsible for turmeric’s powerful health benefits. Turmeric fingers are the raw, natural form of turmeric before being ground into powder. From these dried fingers, turmeric powder, essential oils, and extracts are produced. Widely used in cooking, traditional medicine, Ayurveda, pharmaceuticals, and the cosmetic industry, turmeric fingers are prized for their purity, long shelf life, and global demand as a premium spice.

To convert fresh turmeric to turmeric powder, a general guideline is that 1 inch of fresh turmeric is roughly equivalent to about 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder. Since 3 cm is approximately 1.2 inches, you would need about 1 to 1.5 teaspoons of turmeric powder to match the flavor and potency of 3 cm of fresh turmeric. Keep in mind that the potency and flavor may vary, so it's best to adjust according to taste.
