Hazelnut JING chocolate bars

Level:Easy

This delicious (and pretty as a picture) recipe uses SuperFeast JING and marries it up with decadent hazelnuts and coffee. But you can easily omit the coffee if you want.

Description

SuperFeast is based on the Taoist 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. If you want to learn more about this essence, check out our whole podcast episode dedicated to this very subject.

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 JING blend, to help combat these signs and restore our foundational energy.
