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.
You can buy Turmeric Powder at most grocery stores in the spice section, usually it's just called 'turmeric'. However, you can usually get a much better price at an Indian grocery store, since it is used a lot in Indian cooking.
None. Fresh curry leaves are not related in any way to curry powder. Curry powder is a ground blend of different spices, not including the fresh leaf of the curry tree. There is really no good substitute for fresh curry leaves in a recipe. You could use basil leaves, but the flavor and aroma will be quite different.
a quarter of a cup
i think equal. Experiment!
Well, honey, 1/8 teaspoon of garlic powder is roughly equivalent to 1 clove of garlic, so you're looking at about 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder to replace 1 tablespoon of minced garlic. But hey, if you really want that garlicky punch, don't be shy to sprinkle in a little extra - garlic makes everything better, right?
Cayenne Pepper, Perhaps? Used sparingly, at least compared with the amount of chili powder you would normally used.
Ah, what a lovely question! You can substitute 1/8 teaspoon of garlic powder for 1 clove of fresh garlic. So, for 1 teaspoon of fresh garlic, you would use about 1/8 teaspoon of garlic powder. Remember, cooking is all about experimenting and finding what works best for you! Happy cooking, my friend.
Depends really on what is the purpose. For instance, if you were making curry - then 1.5 teaspoons should be sufficient. Otherwise, if you were making some facial mask or paste, then the amount of vary - depends on how thick you want your mask/paste to be. Therefore and essentially it depends on what you are using turmeric for. You may find out more from here : http://www.citras.com.my/community/mvalue/turmeric.html if that helps.
20g fresh yeast is approximately equivalent to 7g dried yeast
100 grams of Cocoa powder is equivalent to 0.88 cups of cocoa powder, which is about 7/8 of a cup.
It is safe, it just may not give as much lift as fresh would.
You are free to spice your food as you wish. Some people just like to use salt and black pepper. I have sometimes used a mixture of ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise, which works very nicely for some dishes. You can use barbecue sauce (which comes in many different varieties) if you like. Experiment with seasoning and find out what tastes good to you.
