Zoom on ... the CURCUMA
So well known and recognized, I am surprised not to have told you about its virtues yet! Turmeric is a perennial plant whose rhizome we eat, which gives us the well-known spice. We use it in faith as condiment, as a coloring and as a medicinal plant with therapeutic virtues.
It is a spice that has been used in India for over 4000 years. Widely used in Indian cuisine, it is considered a sacred and auspicious spice.
It is a powerful colorant that can easily stain clothes and is part of the composition of curry. Turmeric is also used to dye the dresses of the bonzes.
Although turmeric is sometimes referred to as Indian saffron or poor man's saffron, saffron and turmeric are two completely different spices. However, turmeric often replaces saffron in dishes to color them ...
In the kitchen…
It is from the same family as ginger and cardamom, the Zingiberaceae. It is the basic ingredient of the most famous mixes in the world of cooking such as colombo, curry.
Turmeric has a warm but mild flavor, it can be used in any dish, do not hesitate to put it everywhere. We can even surprisingly put it in desserts such as: half a teaspoon in your pancake or waffle batter.
In the root, you can put a piece of it in your teas and infusions (accompanied by a pepper is even better for the taste and for your health!).
And precisely for health ...
Turmeric has innumerable properties, mainly in Ayurvedic medicine, so it should be remembered that it is not a medicine but part of a way of life!
Here are some good reasons, in addition to its taste properties, to buy turmeric.
Curcumin, its active ingredient a powerful antioxidant which helps protect the body from cellular damage caused by free radicals. It also acts in multiple ways on chronic, joint and digestive inflammation.
You should know that the antioxidant properties and anti-inflammatorys of curcumin are increased tenfold when mixed with piperine, the active ingredient in pepper. It would have a preventive effect on Alzheimer's disease.
It's finally an excellent antiseptic et healing. It is used to treat stomach ulcers and to protect the liver. It's a antimicrobial natural.
This is just an overview of the virtues of turmeric, research is discovering new reasons every day to include it in your recipes! On our side, we have started!
