I guees i'd better write this aritcle in English because it's not only easy for English readers but also for my Thai friends.
As a Thai, i love eating curry and almost all kinds of fresh and dried herbs. I was living in a small villlage in Thailand when i was jong where there were no medicines (like we use these days). Whenever i got sick, my mother gave me a kind of drink which was made from herbs, roots of some plants and water. She always kept those herbs rapped in a white cloth. I had no idea which kinds of herb they were but they seemed to work. When i grew up and moved to a bigger town where the medicines were available, i had to take medicines when i got sick. Now i got two beautiful kids and a lot of times i wonder if those medicines were really neccessary. My oldest son is now almost 6 years old and the only medicine he has used is Suppositoruim (paracetamol for kids).
I love puur and fresh food and i always spend time to prepare food. I believe that everyone would like to live healthy but it's just not that easy to do these days when there are a lot of "food seductions". Maybe this is one of good and healthy kinds of drink that you might enjoy making it at home, like i do.
Try this Golden Milk made from Turmeric and milk because it's easy and worth trying. Plenty of health advantages which i can't even remember (in this case Google is a place to find out). Turmeric is easy to find and it costs almost nothing but it gives back unbelievable good health.
How to make Turmeric paste for Golden Milk:
 |
- 5 tbsp. of turmeric, cook with water with low heat about 3-4 minutes. Stir slowly.
- If it's too thick, add some more water.
- Add some fresh grounded black pepers (about 1tsp.)
- leave it to cool down and keep this paste in a pot in the fridge, it will last 2-3 weeks.

| How to drink it? - Heat the milk (or soy milk/ almond milk/ goat milk) in a cup. You can use a pan or a microwave. - Add 1 tsp. of turmaric paste - Add 1 tsp. of coconut oil. This is very important because it works wonderful with fat. You can also use another kind of oil/ fat but i recommend coconut oil because it's natural. - Add black pepers. This is a must! without black pepers, this drink will not work well. * if you are not used to this drink this golden milk, you may add some honey or sugar. Kids love it and do i! I recommend one or two glasses a day. One in the morning and another one before you go to bed. Healthy and above all ...delicious! |
