Black sesame seed?

I have been having a real pang for some "Black Sesame seed milk" lately.
Since I knew I won't be finding it in Cologne, I decided
"F* it! I'll make my own!" 😆🤘🏻
You only need two ingredients and some elbow grease:
  • Dried Organic Soybeans
  • Black sesame seeds

This hip toasty sweet vegan milk has all the health benefits without the chemicals such as preservatives and added sugar/sweeteners from the carton soy milks. This is the new cool milk from the block and you don't need an expensive soy milk maker or tricky to find cheese cloth.
All you need is a pot, bowl and a clean new pair of panty hose! ✌🏻
(I hand washed and sun dried  a pair of new unopened panty hose I found in my drawer 😄)

If you are vegan or vegetarian or just a lover of soy milk, you are going to LOVE this recipe for a cool black twist for a healthy exotic kick start of the day. 

This little tasty black seed is used for many health-promoting and anti-aging benefits in both western and eastern cultures. In Chinese medicine, black foods are said to nourish the kidneys and black sesame seeds are known to nourish kidney yin. Black sesame seeds are known for its good source of energy due to the high healthy fatty acids and Omega-6 content. You will see these awesome nutritious rich seeds in many oriental dishes. As a Korean girl, aroma of toasted sesame seeds brings my senses to a nostalgic fit of joy 🤤

Not only this milk is hip and delicious, here are some amazing benefits of black sesame seed soy milk:
1. Sesame seeds contain good source of bone forming minerals such as calcium, phosphorus and magnesium. There's more calcium in one tablespoon of sesame seeds than a glass of milk! magnesium and calcium are also important essential minerals that help regulate blood pressure.
2. Along with the relaxing minerals such as magnesium and calcium, it also contains amino acid tryptophan that help produce serotonin ups your mood and helps you sleep better by 
3. The healthy fatty acids such as oleic acid and linoleic acid in sesame seeds help in skin beutifying!
4. The seeds are high in copper content which are wonders for the bones and joints
5. Black sesame seeds contain highest level of anti-cancer compound phytosterols out of any commony consumed seeds and nuts  
6. The antioxidants in the black sesame seeds protect the liver from oxidative damage. Black sesame seeds are a natural tonic to liver.
7. Black sesame seeds have higher in iron content than other variety.
8. It is a plant-based protein




Notes and tips
  • ​Don't over cook the soybean. Cook just enough so you can smoosh the bean with your thumb and index finger. Otherwise the bean will smell.
  • Use a panty hose if you can't find or purchase cheese cloth

    1. Preheat oven at 180 degrees celsius
    2. Lay the sesame seeds on a baking sheet
    3. Toast for 12 minutes. Shuffle half way
