Hey everybody, I've got an actual food-related question. Sort of <g>.
Does anyone happen to know when the spice "turmeric" became available in
Europe? I know that it's a root-thingie, similar to ginger (would that
make it a rhizome?), and that it's common to the Indian subcontinent,
but when did it show up in Europe? Was it imported at all during the SCA
time period?
