📝 Ingredients
Serves 1🥬Fresh Produce(1)
- 1 glass of water
🫙Pantry Staples(1)
- 1 tablespoon of honey (15 ml)
📦Other(1)
- 3 tablespoons of sesame seeds (45 ml)
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Mix 3 tablespoons of sesame seeds with 1 tablespoon of honey.
- 2
Add 1 glass of water and blend for one minute.
- 3
Strain the mixture to obtain pure collagen.
💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan at 300°F for 3-4 minutes until fragrant before blending, as heat ruptures the seeds' outer hull and ligand-bound lignans, increasing extractable sesamin and calcium bioavailability by up to 30%.technique300°F, 3-4 minutes
- ✓Blend for a full 60 seconds at high speed (22,000+ RPM if using a high-torque blender) since sesame seeds have a tough pericarp that requires sustained mechanical shear to release oils and amino acids like methionine and glycine into the liquid.equipment60 seconds, 22,000+ RPM
- ✓Use raw, unfiltered honey rather than processed honey because its residual enzymes (invertase, glucose oxidase) and trace minerals aren't degraded by pasteurization, preserving compounds that support collagen cross-linking.ingredientunfiltered honey
- ✓Strain through a double layer of cheesecloth or a fine-mesh nut milk bag rather than a standard sieve, since sesame fiber particles above 100 microns create a gritty mouthfeel and can trap up to 15% of the extractable liquid.equipment100 micron mesh
- ✓Let the strained liquid rest for 5 minutes before drinking so the honey fully dissolves into the aqueous phase rather than settling as a viscous layer, ensuring even distribution of sugars that aid amino acid absorption.timing5 minutes
