Gurkmeja

I´m looking for an english translation of this spice. It´s like yellow, doesn´t add any flavor more or less only yellow color. What is it called in English?

We call it turmeric.

I've never heard it called Indian Saffron before although it is the same, I checked.

Are you translating recipes now?

I´ve always been a fan of translating recipes and especially spices. When you get here we´ll sit down and talk a bit about it.

Hello Gurkmeja is turmeric or haldi, not indian saffron. Saffron is saffron, thats a different plant.
