TURMERIC is a staple in South Asian cuisine. You can easily substitute the Essential Oil for the herb. TURMERIC Essential Oil can be used as a preservative to naturally preserve your food. Add a small amount to your meats and/or vegetables.
When cooking, try using TURMERIC with Wild Orange, Ginger, Cardamom, or Cinnamon Bark Essential Oils.
COOKING TIPS:
• For each teaspoon found in the recipe, substitute one drop of TURMERIC Essential Oil.
• If the recipe calls for more than a teaspoon, add one drop and then add-to-taste.
• If the recipe calls for under a teaspoon, start with one to two toothpick swirls. Simply insert a clean toothpick into the Essential Oil bottle and then swirl into your recipe.
• When desiring to use a half a drop of an oil, apply one drop to a spoon and then using a knife scrape part of it into the recipe.
• Add an Essential Oil to a cooking oil to enhance flavor while cooking. You can even add it to a spray and spray onto your food.
