Default Turmeric

By dry fried, do you mean frying without oil? I imagine any spices will
burn in that case.

Turmeric is great to golden up spaghetti and noodles if used with pesto
as apposed to a tomato sauce. It's also a must in Thai satay marinade!
And as anyone knows, it's a super-duper yellow dye so handle with care.
