This broth makes a delicious chicken noodle soup like pictured above. You can get very creative with what you add to your broth. Think of foods that naturally complement turmeric: Chicken, fish, lentils, chickpeas, brown rice, sweet potatoes, potatoes, kale, spinach, carrots, zucchini, lemon, green onions, cilantro, and parsley! Look for fresh turmeric in the produce section of your local health food store. It's usually found near the fresh ginger. Leave the skins on your fresh turmeric and ginger for this recipe....no need to peel them! The rice noodles pictured here are a Thai rice noodle that just needs to be soaked in hot water for 10 to 15 minutes before using (no cooking required). I usually keep a few packs in my pantry for quick Pad Thai dinners, or quick curry-noodle soups.
