GLORIOUS GOLDEN PASTE! QUICK AND EASY.

GLORIOUS GOLDEN PASTE! QUICK AND EASY.

There are 2 things we can all agree on: health is everything, and time is precious. So we wanted to chat a bit about GOLDEN PASTE, because that gives us plenty of both. A health giving elixir that is quick and easy to make, and quick and easy to take.

 Taking turmeric is a crazy-effective way of reducing inflammation, and inflammation is the primary cause of dis-ease in the body. So having turmeric regularly, no matter what your age or stage of health, can only be a good thing!

 Here is a simple recipe to help you have Turmeric at hand. A bit of this daily (you do not need more than 1 teaspoon per day), can help repair and prevent a multitude of ailments for yourself, your family, and even your pets! 

 

GOLDEN PASTE INGREDIENTS: 

  • 1/2 cup ground turmeric
  • 1 cup water (and keep 1 cup of water extra in reserve, if needed)
  • 2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil (use raw, unrefined, cold-pressed). You can also swop this out for linseed oil or virgin olive oil if you prefer.

 Turmeric is incredibly effective on its own, but sometimes we would like a little delicious variety, so we can always add other yummies like cinnamon and ginger. These also can really add to the efficacy. So you could add:

  •  1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated. Fresh ginger is generally easy to find, but you can also use a ground ginger instead. 

GOLDEN PASTE RECIPE:  

  • Using a small saucepan, bring the turmeric and water to a boil.
  • Lower heat and simmer until you have a thick paste.
  • Gently stir for around 10 minutes.
  • If needed, slowly add the extra water.
  • Remove from heat BEFORE adding pepper and oil - allow to cool first
  • Stir in well to mix the oil thoroughly
  • Allow to cool again (if coconut oil is hard, it should melt in the mixture).

 This will leave you with about one cup of Golden Paste. Bottle it in a clean jar with a tight-fitting lid and keep in fridge. It should last up to 2 weeks, during which time we encourage you to take it regularly!

 DOSE: Start with 1/4 of a teaspoon, twice a day (with food and water), and build up to 3 - 4 times a day. It is most effective when taken in smaller ‘doses’, 3-4 times daily.

DIFFERENT WAYS TO TAKE YOUR GOLDEN PASTE: 

  • Wash down ½ teaspoon with a little water (if you’re in a hurry, this is a simple way to get your daily quota).
  • Adding some raw honey enhances the health benefits AND makes it very pleasant to the taste. Just mix in a small amount!
  • Stir ½ teaspoon into yogurt, with a drizzle of nuts and a drop of honey.
  • Add to warm or cold milk. You can also use almond or coconut milk.
  • Mix ½ teaspoon into your morning smoothie
  • Mix a small amount into a nut butter.
  • Add to meat dishes, soups, stir fries, etc.
  • Mix with plain yogurt and use as dips and toppings!
