Turmeric, a brilliant golden spice, is a staple ingredient in many cuisines and traditional medicine systems around the world. Whether consumed fresh or dried, turmeric has impressive health benefits thanks to its active curcumin. Curcuma longa, a plant of the ginger family (Zingiberaceae) from south-east Asia, has been used for thousands of years for its medicinal properties. Its consumption is also supported by traditional medical systems such as Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), as well as by modern scientific research.
Usage: Add dry turmeric powder to soups, stews, rice or lentil dishes, even sprinkle on salads for a warm and distinctive flavour. Turmeric can also be used to make tea and golden milk by mixing it with a warm herbal drink and a little sweetener.
Studies show that the combination of black pepper piperine and curcumin in turmeric increases curcumin absorption by up to 2000%. As a result, combining turmeric with black pepper increases the potential health benefits of turmeric.
