Turmeric Recipes

Do you add turmeric to your meals? Did you know it has superb anti-inflammatory properties that fight infection and strengthen the immune system?

In this post, I share with you how to make golden milk and a turmeric salad dressing.

I. Turmeric Latte

I love turmeric latte because it’s warming, grounding and very nourishing for the body when it’s cold outside. The ingredients in this golden milk include cell protective compounds, anti-inflammatory properties and a brain boosting effect.

Ingredients for one serving:
🌟🌟🌟
– 1/2 cup of non-dairy milk (I think hemp milk works best but you can also use almond, oat or rice milk)
– 1 tsp of turmeric
– 1 small piece of fresh ginger
-1/2 tsp of cinnamon (I add nutmeg as well)
– 1 pinch of ground black pepper*
– A dropfull of stevia or maple syrup (or two dates)
🌙🌙🌔
You can either mix all ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a boil, of blend them together and then add a 1/4 cup of boiling water.
The second method takes less time and tastes just as good.

*IMPORTANT: the curcumin in turmeric is best absorbed in the body in combination with piperine, found in black pepper. 


II. Salad Dressing

Two tablespoons of hemp seeds*

A teaspoon of tahini (even better will be few soaked cashews)

A generous bunch of cilantro

A dash of mustard seed

A tablespoon of nutritional yeast

A pinch of Himalayan salt

A tablespoon of apple cider vinegar

A pinch of oregano spice and garlic to taste 

*The compounds in turmeric are fat-soluble so you need to consume it with a serving of healthy fats.

Spicy, hearty and sweet = > my favorite combination! 🙌🏻
