For a smoother paste, use a microplane to grate the turmeric and ginger. Adjust the amount of black pepper to your preference. It enhances turmeric absorption and adds a subtle kick. When freezing the paste in ice cube trays, transfer the frozen cubes to a freezer bag for easy storage. This paste is excellent added to coconut milk with chicken or tofu and simmered to create a fragrant stew.
