I’m wondering the same. Do you use fresh ginger in place of the tumeric?
Start with 1/4 teaspoon dried turmeric and add to taste. You could also use fresh ginger. That would be delicious, too.
If there is an Indian or maybe an Asian grocery store near you, you can find it in their produce section. It will make a difference, but I use turmeric powder as a substitute a lot. I would think in a juice you might want to throw it in a blender to get it mixed in well.
Thanks for your suggestions Susan.
Yes. Absolutely. I would start with 1/4 teaspoon and add to taste.
I love your recipes, they’re wonderful! Quick question: I was trying this out and the juice separated into layers (as it does) as it was freezing, and I was just wondering if you knew any way to stop this from happening?
Thanks Leona, it’s great to be connected. Yes, this happens with fresh juice. If you look at my photo, you’ll see that it happened a bit for me, too. What I do is use a popsicle mold with a lid I can pull off and gently stir a little bit an hour into freezing. It’s a pain, but it’s the only way that I’ve found. If I’m just making them for myself, I just leave them separated.
