Turmeric bone broth is the golden-hour version of Planet Paleo’s grass-fed broth: organic bovine bone broth powder (81% of the blend) coloured and warmed by organic turmeric, with onion, garlic, tomato, black pepper and sea salt building the savoury frame. High protein, paleo-friendly, and quite deliberately the most comforting of the four flavours — 225 g to the pack.

Golden milk’s savoury cousin

Everyone knows turmeric’s sweet-latte form; this is the other branch of the tradition — turmeric in the stockpot, where South Asian and Middle Eastern kitchens have always put it. The black pepper is here for the same reason it is in every classical turmeric preparation: piperine is turmeric’s oldest travelling companion. The result sips like a golden, gently spiced consommé and cooks like a stock cube with a pedigree.

The label, in full

Bovine bone broth powder* (81%), turmeric powder*, sea salt, onion powder*, garlic powder*, tomato powder*, black pepper powder* — every asterisk certified organic, and that’s the entire list. Free from wheat, gluten, dairy, soya and sugar; no anti-caking agents (so whisk properly). A beef product — not vegetarian. Slow-simmered, then gently dehydrated to keep the nutrients and the deep savoury flavour intact.

Using the golden mug

• The evening cup — one 9 g serving (about five level teaspoons) whisked into hot water; Planet Paleo’s own “fire up your evening” positioning is accurate
• Curry and soup base — the obvious and excellent shortcut for laksa-ish soups, dal-adjacent lentils and golden vegetable stews
• Rice and grains — cooked in diluted broth, arriving at the table already seasoned and golden
• The savoury latte — whisked into warm coconut milk for the hybrid the name implies

Who pours this one

Turmeric loyalists who already own the sweet latte and want the savoury lane; broth drinkers bored of Original; and anyone assembling the low-sugar afternoon-drink rotation that Maltese office life quietly needs. Around 25 servings per pack keeps the habit funded for a month.

Frequently asked questions

Spicy? Warming, not hot — the pepper is a supporting actor.

Will it stain? It’s turmeric: treat pale worktops and white shirts with the respect the spice has always demanded.

Versus the sweet Turmeric Latte? Same golden theme, opposite direction — that one’s dessert-adjacent with collagen, this one is the savoury stock-and-sip version.

Turmeric, held to broth standards

A stated 81% broth percentage, a named organic source for every powder in the tin, pepper included by tradition rather than trend — this is turmeric formulated the way stock deserves rather than sprinkled for colour. It’s also worth noting what the label refuses: no anti-caking agents, no yeast extracts doing umami’s job synthetically, no sugar smoothing the edges. The trade-off is honest work with a whisk and a mug — thirty seconds of stirring for a cup that tastes like something simmered since yesterday.

The golden-hour habit

Regulars report the same pattern: the cup starts as an occasional experiment and annexes the 9pm slot within a fortnight — warm, savoury, caffeine-free and quietly protein-rich, which is everything the biscuit tin isn’t. Malta’s brief winter makes the case loudly; air-conditioned July evenings make it more quietly. Keep the spoon dry, the lid tight, and the pack lives comfortably to its last serving.

Does it work cold? It’s built for heat — the turmeric and broth want warmth to open up; for cold golden drinks, the sweet latte sibling is the right tool.

Storage note for the spice-sensitive cupboard? Sealed tight, away from the kettle’s steam — turmeric holds colour and character admirably when kept dry.
