Hazelnut Jing Chocolate Bars
Level:ModerateTime:120 mins
This delicious (and pretty as a picture) recipe uses SuperFeast JING and marries it up with decadent hazelnuts and coffee.
Description
SuperFeast is based on the Daoist traditions, and according to this philosophy, there are essentially three energies - Jing, Qi (pronounce chi) and Shen. Jing lives in our kidneys and is our primordial essence. This stuff gives us stamina and core energy.Â
In our busy Western lives, often our Jing stores get depleted, this can be felt through exhaustion and weakness in the body. That's why Mason (founder of SuperFeast) had to create the SuperFeast JINGÂ blend, to help combat these signs and restore our foundational energy. Â
Note: You can easily omit the coffee if you want. This recipe is a perfect gift for Easter or maybe even Mother's Day.
