Turmeric

This recipe may be used for humans as well as animals.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup (125 mls/60gms) turmeric powder
• 1 cup water (250 mls) PLUS 1 cup water in reserve, if needed
• 1/3 cup (70 mls) Raw/Cold Pressed/Unrefined Coconut/Flaxseed-Linseed Oil, Virgin/Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 2-3 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

Omit pepper if you  cant take it.  The absorption of turmeric is improved by cooking the paste with  oil,  its more effective with pepper.

Place turmeric and water in pan, stirring over gentle heat  (do not burn) until you have a thick paste. This should take about 7-10 minutes and you may need to add additional water along the way.

Add the freshly ground pepper and oil  at the end of cooking.

Stir well  with a whisk to mix the oil and allow to cool.

The Golden Paste will keep for 2 weeks, refrigerated

You can freeze if you have too much to use within the 2 weeks.

Suitable for humans or your pets.

Suggestions ; Milk shakes,  add to Smoothies,  mix with Yogurt,  or add to your dinner plate as a condiment…

Humans  start 1/4 tsp  paste 3 - 4 times a day

Horses start 1tsp  paste  a feed then build up to 1-2 tbs at a time ( you can increase the amount every 5 days)
