Have you ever eaten fresh turmeric? (Or tumeric even) It’s fantastic in curries of course, but some people make a tea (a bit like ginger root tea) from fresh turmeric root (it even looks a lot like ginger) to ease aches and pains. Turmeric has fantastic anti-inflammatory properties, and in Chinese and Indian herbal medicines it has been used to...

This salad is a looks beautiful on your plate and is totally delicious – it’s a huge hit in Organico Café. My favourite part of it is the Green Goddess Dressing, the name comes from a mayonnaise and sour cream laden dressing originally made in the 1920 in San Francisco, this is a very different version using avocados, much lighter...
