Ingredients
- 3/4 cup black sesame seeds (soaked in warm water for 30 minutes)
- 2 pinches sea salt or pink Himalayan salt, divided
- 4 cups filtered water
- 1 medjool date, pitted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- 1-2 tsp maple syrup for sweetness (optional)
Instructions
- To a medium mixing bowl, add black sesame seeds and a pinch of salt, then cover with warm water and allow to sit for 30 minutes.
- Drain and rinse sesame seeds through a fine mesh strainer, then add to a high-speed blender along with filtered water, a pinch of salt, date, vanilla (optional), and maple syrup (optional). Blend on high for about 1-2 minutes.
- Strain contents of the blender through a nut milk bag into a bowl.
- Enjoy immediately or transfer to a sealed glass jar. Will keep in the refrigerator 3-4 days or in the freezer for 1 month.
- The leftover pulp can be frozen and added to smoothies, dehydrated and added to baked goods, or composted.
Notes
- *Nutrition information is a rough estimate calculated without optional ingredients and with the sesame "pulp" removed.
