Why vendors in Mumbai always sell fresh turmeric with a root called aambe-haldi

Your first sensation when you bite into a piece of peeled raw turmeric root is that it’s almost like carrot since it not only has the same color, but also that crisp texture. But almost at once, the carrotty flavor is overwhelmed by a woody bitterness which is not pleasant at all. If you can bear it though, it leaves a lovely fresh and spicy flavour which you will feel rising up your palate.

There’s nothing quite like being able to pick fresh vegetables and herbs from your garden to cook with, but that really isn’t much of an option when it’s -10 degrees and snowing outside, is it?

Project Ranks Billions of Drug Interactions

For decades, drug development was mostly a game of trial and error, with brute-force candidate screens throwing up millions more duds than winners.
