Carrot and Ginger Dressing

Ingrédients

For 2 people

  • 1 medium carrot, peeled, thinly sliced
  • 5 g-10 g fresh Ginger, peeled, thinly sliced
  • ½ large garlic clove
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar or fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon miso sauce
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 10 ml water
  • 1 tablespoon mustard

Préparation

  • Put in a blender the carrot, ginger, garlic, miso, vinegar or lemon juice, soy sauce, sesame oil, and water; process at high speed until solids are very finely chopped (or chop and mix by hand).
  • Add the mustard and blend on low speed (if using a blender) until smooth and creamy.

Dose quotidienne recommandée

Add half of this dressing to any salad.

Préparation et dosage

Ginger should be consumed 3 times daily, during or after each meal:

As a dried powder: 0.5 g to 1 g (equal to ½ to 1 teaspoon) 3 times per day (equal to total daily dose of 1.5 g to 3 g). Same dose if taken in the form of capsules.

As a fresh root: 2.5 g (equal to a 1.5 cm cube) to 5 g 3 times per day (equal to total daily dose of 7.5 g to 15 g).

Note: 1 g dry powder corresponds to 5g fresh root.

To our knowledge, there is no data indicating that it is possible to consume ginger cooked, steamed, stir-fried, or baked without losing its hypoglycaemic activity; we recommend consuming it fresh or in powder form only (if in a dish: add it at the end of the preparation).

Proven health benefits of Ginger

Consuming 1.6 g of powdered ginger daily for 12 weeks is proven to reduce cholestérol et triglyceride levels.

Ginger is also proven to prevent nausea related to either motion sickness or chemotherapy.
