Golden Milk Paste
Learn how to make the perfectly balanced golden milk paste using just a few simple kitchen ingredients and minutes of effort!
Ingredients
- 1 cup turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
- 1 teaspoon ginger powder
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Add the turmeric, cinnamon, ginger and pepper in a pot.
- Turn on the heat and gradually add in water, stirring the mixture constantly for about 2-3 minutes.
- Once the mixture turns fragrant and the water has started to dry up, turn off the heat.
- Now add in the coconut oil and give it all a good mix.
Notes
- To bring a different flavor to the golden paste, you can swap the cinnamon powder in the recipe for powdered nutmeg or even cardamom.
- You can adjust the thickness of the paste by adding more water, if needed.
- Remember to keep the heat low at all times. Cooking this on high heat can cause the turmeric to burn and lose its nutritional benefits too.
- Make sure you use a metal spoon or spatula when making this turmeric golden milk paste, as the turmeric can stain your silicone or plastic ones.
