Cholesterol-Balancing Spice Mix

Ingredients:

• 3 parts ground turmeric
• 6 parts ground cumin
• 6 parts ground coriander
• 6 parts ground fennel
• 2 parts ground fenugreek
• 1 part dried powdered ginger
• 1 part ground black pepper

Directions:

Combine the spices and store in a sealed container. When preparing your meal, sauté a teaspoon of spices in a small amount of ghee or olive oil. Combine with vegetables or grains to give them a satisfying flavor and enhance digestion. Add salt to taste.

A word of caution:

If you have a Pitta imbalance, start first by cooling Pitta dosha. Follow a low-oil Pitta-pacifying diet until your Pitta is in balance. Then use this spice mixture to help lower cholesterol.
