fresh turmeric rhizome

Very easily confused with ginger, as it is in the same family. I use it (dried and ground in a powder) in a paste with (virgin) coconut oil and scramble eggs in it. I've read where it needs the heat to open it up.... Add to your hearts desire, other ingredients (onion, garlic, potatoes, etc...) A wonderful elixir in its' own right. One of those....magic foods/supplement/herbs, etc....may long you live! pg

Also taken with black pepper (Piperine) increases the absorption rate.

Where can one buy this and black pepper?

 

Thanks

read what rebo and kaptain rob posted.   rob gave me a recipe long ago  :   turmeric plus ginger plus lemon grass plus a cinnamin stick....and a little ground pepper.   boil for about 15 minutes  

the cumin should be cumin cha ..... fairly small and can be bought at larger thai markets but have to go around looking for it.   A few pieces can last a while as about a teaspoon (grated) is enough for one pot.

also,  they will try to sell you cumin that is already a powder ( in a bottle).   Get the fresh stuff if you can.

if you see some ginger ask them        "mee cumin cha....  mai krap "
