Tumeric Milk

[PenttitheFinn]

I have tried various recipes, mixing rapeseed oil with tumeric powder, black pepper and a small amount of milk, and microwaving it, but still haven't found a mix that is anything other than acceptable. Anyone got any ideas?

Stop trying

You say that all those recipes are acceptable. What are you looking for? Something unacceptable?

A quick Google has turned this info up. So perhaps microwave is where you are going wrong.

"My favorite time to incorporate Turmeric Milk into my day is when I’m unwinding for the day. I’ll put on some relaxing music, cozy slippers, and simmer a pot of this on the stove, letting all the flavor of turmeric, peppercorns, cinnamon, ginger, and coconut milk or almond milk marry together beautifully. Actually, the longer you simmer this over low-medium heat, the stronger and more intense the flavor is, which I prefer. "

I thought it'd be using coconut milk,

Reduce inflammation, there is also some evidence that it reduces blood pressure amongst other things.

Maybe stop doing whatever is causing the inflammation?

Sounds good, but I am after something a little quicker to make.

Life is what causes my inflammation/pain, so I am going to wait on that one!

Are you seeing a rheumatologist?

Can you make a large batch and keep some in the fridge, or even freeze it?
I suspect time v good taste may a case of you can have one or the other, but not both.

Just mix it in baked beans. It only mildly flavours it, anything with tomato sauce hardly shows it and masks the taste a lot.
