“The Golden Goddess” – turmeric recipes
#1 - Fire Cider from Mountain Rose Herbs
This first delicious recipe is an age old remedy from my dear friend and world-renowned herbalist, Rosemary Gladstar. It boosts your immune system and helps your digestion. It could be used as a salad dressing, added to marinades or taken as a shot!
​​Ingredients:
​
1/2 cup fresh grated organic ginger root
1/2 cup fresh grated organic horseradish root
1/2 cup fresh grated organic turmeric root
1 medium organic onion, chopped
10 cloves of organic garlic, crushed or chopped
2 organic jalapeno peppers, chopped
Zest and juice from 1 organic lemon
2 Tbsp. of dried rosemary leaves
1/4 tsp. organic cayenne powder
organic apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup of raw local honey, or to taste
Preparation:
​
-
Prepare your roots, fruits, and herbs and place them in a quart-sized glass jar. If you've never grated fresh horseradish, be prepared for a powerful sinus-opening experience!
-
Pour the apple cider vinegar in the jar until all of the ingredients are covered and the vinegar reaches the jar's top.
-
Use a piece of natural parchment paper under the lid to keep the vinegar from touching the metal, or a plastic lid if you have one. Shake well.
-
Store in a dark, cool place for a month and remember to shake daily.
-
After one month, use cheesecloth to strain out the pulp, pouring the vinegar into a clean jar. Be sure to squeeze as much of the liquify goodness as you can from the pulp while straining.
-
Next comes the honey. Add and stir until incorporated.
-
Taste your cider and add more honey until you reach the desired sweetness.
