Ghee..heard of but never had it.

Any oil will do. The Indians use ghee, but it could be coconut oil or butter or peanut butter or anything with edible oil, grease, or fat. Curcumin is, I believe, fat-soluble.

Use it as a season with almost anything that has a fat in it, like on fish or in mayo or salad dressing. The amt of fat in whole milk will do the trick. I just used ghee the first time a few days ago, to fry pancakes. Gets nice and hot without smoking. ANd it doesn't need to be refrigerated.

If you have ever had crab legs there was a dipping bowl of ghee. It is just clarified butter that has cooled.

For the rest of you paying out the nose for turmeric, just go to an Indian grocery store. It is something like 2.99 a LB.

Yellow rice with raisins. A great way to ingest turmeric. Cup of rice. 2 cups water. A good handfull of raisins sultanas or other chopped dry fruit. Bring water to a boil. Toss it all in and let it come to a boil again. Cover and set plate to lowest setting. 20 min later perfect delicious rice. Salt and butter to taste in the boil up front.

Ghee is very easily made at home. Melt butter in a pan over med to low heat until the milk solids separate from the oil. Strain into a jar. If you have gotten all the milk out this will keep at room temp. If not, refrigerate until solid and drain off all the liquid left in bottom of jar.
