Haldi ka doodh reccipe - Today I am sharing a very simple, unique and healthy recipe of fresh turmeric root milk. Fresh turmeric roots are in season in Maharashtra. It is available during winter season. Turmeric root milk is a very popular drink and during off season turmeric powder can be used to prepare this milk. Haldi ka doodh is a very tasty, soothing, healthy and comfort milk. It has a subtle flavor and often consumed to comfort the sore throat. 

Whenever any one of our family member is having cold and cough, I make turmeric milk and give them to drink during night for a couple of days. When fresh turmerics are not available, I use the same method with turmeric powder. First boil the milk and add sugar to it. Then make the turmeric milk by adding turmeric powder in the milk and bring it to boil. Turmeric roots dry or fresh has medicinal properties and turmeric milk is one of the best ways of consuming turmeric. It has strong antioxidant properties and thus it helps in maintaining good health.
