    What does turmeric do in cooking?

    in Recipes!

    If we say that we are going to talk about an herbaceous plant that belongs to the Zingiberaceae family, you would surely read this far. But if we say that we are going to explain the properties of turmeric and that it is also the plant with whose root curry is made, and we include in the information that this spice is the basis of the preparation of Asian cuisine dishes, surely you will be interested in this article.

    Because you have to know that turmeric is much more than a simple coloring or seasoning that will give our dishes flavor and exoticism. Turmeric provides us with dietary fiber, vitamins C, E and K, calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc, among other nutrients.

    It is time for you to know the different properties of turmeric and you can apply them to improve your health and the appearance of your skin.

    The properties of turmeric in the kitchen

    Although you may not be aware of it, we are actually eating small amounts of turmeric in many of the foods we bring home from the supermarket.

    As the European Union includes it within food additives, on the product label it does not appear as such but as E100. And in this way, we do find it in some types of cheeses or mustards and especially in curries whose proportion is 20%

    For the kitchen, it is a natural product that is used as a colorant, especially in mustards. It is also common to use it as a substitute for saffron, and to give flavor and aroma to pastry and bakery products.

    It gives an intense yellow color to stews and that special color to mustard.

    The properties of turmeric

    Use the properties of turmeric to make a salad dressing with flavor and color and taste a dish that will provide you with vitamin C from citrus fruits, Omega-3 from flax seeds and vitamin E from olive oil.

    You need:

    · Olive oil (Four tablespoons)

    · Lemon juice (One tablespoon)

    · Orange juice (Two tablespoons)

    · Flax seeds (One tablespoon)

    · One teaspoon of turmeric.

    · A pinch of black pepper

    How to use: dress the salad just at the time of serving to make the most of the vitamin C and, "Bon Appétit"

    The properties of turmeric on a medicinal level

    · Properties of turmeric as a natural antiseptic as it helps accelerate the healing process of skin wounds.

    · Properties of turmeric as an antioxidant helping to delay cellular aging as it fights free radicals.

    · Properties of turmeric to control cholesterol levels, because it acts on the absorption of cholesterol that we eat.

    · Antibacterial properties of turmeric that allows us to have gums in good condition.

    · Properties of turmeric to prevent the formation of blood clots by improving blood circulation.

    Due to its powerful healing properties, if we include turmeric in our diet, we can help keep many diseases at bay.

    Besides acting as a natural tonic in states of exhaustion, it helps diabetics lower their blood sugar. For this reason, you can have a drink based on hot milk and a teaspoon of turmeric daily.

    Turmeric for cancer

    Curcumin is a promising candidate as a cancer treatment. It selectively kills tumor cells while leaving normal cells unharmed and works synergistically to increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy and radiation when it is carried out.

    Suggested dosage of turmeric consumption for general health

    Most of us in Western countries are familiar with turmeric found in the dry spice section at the grocery store. But you can buy turmeric root in some product sections - it looks a lot like ginger, a "raw" plant that is another source of curcumin.

    Suggested turmeric dosages for adults:

    · Fresh root: 1.5-3 grams per day

    · Dried, powdered root: 1-3 grams per day

    · Fluid extract (1: 1): 30-90 drops per day

    · Tincture (1: 2): 15-30 drops, 4 times a day

    The recommended dosage for curcumin - a standardized powder supplement - is 400-600 mg, 3 times a day.

    The properties of turmeric on a cosmetic level

    · We can use turmeric internally and on our skin.

    · Due to the moisturizing properties of turmeric, it is a perfect product to act against the dryness of our skin. But it will also enhance your appearance by restoring shine and radiance.

    · Turmeric acts against acne and reduces the presence of stretch marks.

    Returns the shine to the skin of your face thanks to the properties of turmeric:

    You need:

    · ¼ teaspoon of turmeric.

    · 5 drops of lemon.

    · 2 tablespoons of coffee with blended cucumber.

    How to use:

    Mix well all the ingredients. You just have to apply the mask on a clean face and leave it on for 10 minutes. To finish, wash your face with warm water.

    Your hands can also benefit from the properties of turmeric:

    You need:

    · One teaspoon of olive oil.

    · ¼ teaspoon of turmeric.

    · A cup of warm water.

    How to use:

    Mix the turmeric and olive oil well and then add them to the water. Put this liquid in a container where you can leave your hands submerged for 5 minutes. Afterwards, it will be enough to rinse them with warm water.

    Uses of turmeric in the little ones:

    And for the little ones, how can I make use of the properties of turmeric?

    Children seem to be a powerful magnet to attract stains and because of their ability to play without rest, they also often bring bruises and a small cut home.

    Applying turmeric powder will help support the healing process. We invite you to read this report on a r healing emedio turmeric with honey.

    It’s important to maintain an average to high protein intake when you want to . The need for this is rooted in the fact that your liver gets amino acids through the digestion of proteins. These amino acids are necessary for producing the glucose needed to turn ketones into usable energy.
