What is Indonesian Jamu? ... Jamu who?

A Beginner's Guide to Indonesian Jamu

Ingredients I've put down all the measurements I personally use, but if its your first time and your don't fancy that peppery gingery  tang, you should definitely err on the conservative side. 30g Fresh Ginger 30g Fresh Galangal 30g Fresh Turmeric 1 medium over-ripe mango 1 lemon / lime 4 tbsps honey - it doesn't have to be organic, or manuka honey, but these obviously give you the best possible charge of antioxidants and best concentration of immunity boosters.

InstructionsWash all your rhizomes and place them in a saucepan, with about 500ml of water and cook for 5 - 10 minutes. You should notice that the water is turning a dusty yellow, that's the turmeric's doing. Remove from heat and place the whole thing in a food processor with the remainder of your ingredients. Personally speaking, I prefer mine to have bits, so I would recommend you only give it a few pulses before you drink it. If you have a mason jar, it can keep for about 3 days. This is not just a drink for sick days, so why don't you give it ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpSb6LKia4Q Follow my blog with Bloglovin
