INGREDIENTS (3 SERVINGS)

~ 4 cups organic nettle leaf stock
~ 1.5 cups dried wild rice (pre-soaked)
~ 3/4 cup dried organic goji berries
~ 6 tablespoons fresh organic burdock root (diced)
~ 3 tablespoons fresh organic chives (diced)
~ 3 tablespoons dried organic black cumin seeds
~ 1.5 teaspoons sea salt

STOCK DIRECTIONS

1. Place 1/2 cup of dried nettle leaves into a tea press.

2. Bring 4 cups of filtered water almost to a boil then pour over the nettles in the tea press.

3. Let steep for 10 minutes.

4. Pour the nettle stock through the tea press (most have a strainer in it ) into a large glass jar.

5. Store extra servings in the refrigerator and consume within 5 days.

SOUP DIRECTIONS

1. Pre-soak the wild rice in water for 3 hours in a jar in the fridge. This will reduce anti-nutrients.
