Turmeric Preparation

I should warn you'all that this turmeric oil preparation is very pitta. (Ayurveda) Saying that it is "very heating" might be easier to understand. Oil and hot-spices. Now, turmeric per se is probably not so bad; it could actually be perfectly balanced. But I put all of that other stuff in there, particularly clove. You need to do a little study of Ayurveda to fully understand, and I do mean a little. For most people hot-spicy oil would be good. Not for me.

The good news is that this is easily balanced at the same meal with something cold, like celery or kale or something like that. I use my kefir, which is literally cold and ayurvedically sort of balanced.
