Notes

Just a few thoughts.....

Turmeric (fresh or ground) contains natural color pigments that can stain. Be mindful of clean up with towels or aprons.

Any of the ingredients can be increased for flavor. I use the trinity of Ginger, Turmeric and Garlic often. These three ingredients can be added into recipes anytime to increase nutrition and decrease inflammation in the body.

Although when I prepared this recipe I just ate the mixture; this recipe can be served on top of a bed of lettuce, cold cooked grains or wild rice. Nut and seed crackers are also a nice compliment to this dish.
