turmeric and ginger are in the same family of plants,  there is more curcumin 
in the turmeric
hence its more orange color  whereas ginger is more yellow.  zoe

I find curcumin to be cited as giving yellow color to

ginger.......

Now I found a site listing curcumin in ginger, but
there is a heck of a lot more in turmuric.

Just thought it was worth a mention. BTW, I am saving
your post to my remedies file, thanks.
