Turmeric has an earthy hint of ginger and pepper flavors. When added to roasted sweet red onions and then topped with cilantro as a garnish is a nice flavor blend treat. If you decide to use more than recommended in this recipe be careful because it can tend to be overpowering. Also, keep in mind that turmeric is used as a food and fabric coloring and can be difficult to remove if it spills on your clothing ;-)

2 large red onions, peeled and cut into eight wedges
1/4 tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 tsp. turmeric, or more to taste
