Tumeric Paste

 

Tumeric paste








Can be used for to make golden milk or turmeric rice

Ingredients:

·     1 tablespoon dried Ginger OR 3″ fresh

·      1/2 cup water

·      3 tablespoons Coconut Oil

·      2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)

·      1 teaspoon Cinnamon

·      1 teaspoon Black Pepper

·      pinch of Salt, more if using fresh turmeric

Instructions

1.   If using dried turmeric: Measure all ingredients and add to a small pot. Stir well to incorporate- go to step #3.

2.   If using fresh turmeric & ginger, use a spoon to peel the skin then chop into 1″ pieces. Add to a blender with other ingredients and blend until smooth, then add to a small pot.

3.   With all ingredients in a pot, heat over medium low, stirring frequently. We don’t want this to boil, just simmer gently. The dried turmeric version will be quick to thicken- and can possibly burn, stir often.

4.   Simmer for 3-5 minutes, until combined and has slightly thickened to a paste. Turmeric paste will thicken substantially as it cools and is placed in the fridge.

5.   Note: Turmeric paste using fresh turmeric & ginger will need to simmer longer, perhaps 7-10 minutes. Stir often and don’t let burn or boil!


6.   Let cool and store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 weeks.
