Turmeric is more than just a golden spice – it’s a natural healer loaded with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. Here are 5 simple and tasty ways to include organic turmeric in your daily meals:
1. Golden Milk (Haldi Doodh)
Mix 1/2 tsp of organic turmeric powder with warm milk, a pinch of black pepper, and honey. This soothing drink is perfect before bedtime and boosts immunity.
2. Add to Rice Dishes
Sprinkle turmeric while cooking rice or pulao. It not only adds color but also makes the dish healthier. Turmeric pairs well with cumin, bay leaf, and ghee.
3. Turmeric in Dal and Curries
Turmeric is a must in Indian dals and curries. Just a pinch while sautéing onions and tomatoes brings out both flavor and medicinal value.
4. Smoothies with a Twist
Add 1/4 tsp turmeric powder to fruit smoothies (like mango or banana). Its earthy flavor blends well, and it gives your drink an antioxidant punch.
5. Turmeric in Soups and Stews
Whether it’s a vegetable soup or lentil stew, add turmeric while cooking. It adds a warm color and supports digestion.
