Nutrient-Packed! Cheongidan’s Sprout Barley and Pear Juice Recipe
Sprout Barley and Pear Juice for Metabolic Syndrome Improvement: Cheongidan’s Secret Revealed
Hello everyone! ‘Bap-sim’ (meaning ‘rice power’ or ‘foundation of strength’) is our motto. Today, we’re introducing a special recipe using sprout barley, an ingredient gaining attention for its health benefits. Sprout barley is rich in nutrients that help prevent metabolic syndrome. In particular, its policosanol content helps raise good cholesterol levels and improve bad cholesterol levels, making it effective in preventing conditions like hyperlipidemia, diabetes, and other metabolic syndrome risk factors. Just 100g of sprout barley contains 342mg of policosanol, which is 12 times the amount found in sugarcane. Additionally, about 1500mg of saphnarin per 100g of sprout barley enhances liver detoxification capabilities, aiding in obesity control and alleviating metabolic syndrome. Let’s make the ‘Cheongidan Sprout Barley Pear Juice’ at home using this amazing ingredient paired with delicious pear!
Essential Ingredients
- 2 cups Water (approx. 400ml)
- 1 teaspoon Sprout Barley Powder (approx. 3-5g)
- 1/2 ripe Pear
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s get ready to make our juice! The ingredients are simple, so anyone can easily follow along.
Step 2
Thoroughly wash the fresh pear, then remove the core and seeds. Cut it into pieces that are easy to blend in a mixer. You can use the pear with its skin on for extra nutrients, or peel it if you prefer a smoother texture.
Step 3
Now, pour 2 cups (approx. 400ml) of fresh water into the blender. Add 1 teaspoon of healthy sprout barley powder. If you’re using fresh sprout barley leaves instead of powder, use about 10-15g of fresh leaves.
Step 4
Add the pear pieces, cut for easy blending, into the blender. The sweet pear and the sprout barley will create a fantastic flavor combination.
Step 5
Securely close the blender lid and blend until all ingredients are smoothly combined. Blend for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until no ingredient particles are visible. Adjust the blending time based on your blender’s power.
Step 6
When pouring the juice into a glass, you might see some foam. While this foam contains concentrated nutrients, it’s also nice to skim it off with a spoon for a cleaner taste. This step is optional.
Step 7
Voila! Your ‘Cheongidan Sprout Barley Pear Juice’ is ready, helping you manage your health and prevent metabolic syndrome. Enjoy it as a breakfast replacement or a healthy snack to boost your energy and well-being. Drink up and stay healthy!
