As tales of inflammation and inflammatory disease continue to dominate the headlines, I am a firm believer in using anti-inflammatory helpers each day to give ourselves some extra goodness! I continue to experiment with herbs and herbal combinations. I find that the more I study herbs and healing, the more I learn and the more I realize that I am only 'scratching the surface' of this incredible green nation of plant medicine!! Sharing this Turmeric Tahini condiment today!
Turmeric is 'all the rage' these days.. If turmeric is new to you and your family, check out this post and also this one.. to learn much more about the most studied herb on the planet these days!
If you are looking for more ways to get Turmeric into your day, here's another one!

Oooh this sounds intriguing! Any thoughts on making this sugar free? I use stevia all the time, but it doesn't have the liquid quality that honey has.
Carol Little
Great idea Dawn ~ I've made it with honey only and have not tried stevia in this recipe. Try it!

Dina-Marie @ Cultured Palate
This does sound delicious to use as a dip! When using it for a tonic, how much would you use in a glass of water? Maybe in my first glass of water of the day!
Carol Little
Dina-Marie ~ Thanks for your comment. Try a teaspoon and stir. See what you think.There's no wrong way to do it.
IF you try and think you could add more.. try that next day! Love to hear what you discover. It's personal taste too, for sure!
