As I’m sure you’ve heard, turmeric (or it’s active component Curcumin) boasts a whole host of health benefits. These include, but are not limited to wonderful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial properties – you can read more about these here: Superfoods on a Budget: Turmeric.
Whilst curcumin makes up to 5% of the total spice (AKA you’d need to consume a whopping amount of the turmeric spice to reach the therapeutic dose of curcumin), cooking with whole foods is all about including these foods daily for their overall synergistic effect. And this recipe, will help you do just that!
Pair with a fresh piece of sourdough bread for the ultimate combination.
