Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin powder (about 7g)
- 1 pinch pink salt (about 1/8 teaspoon)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional, for flavor)
Instructions
- Pour 1/2 cup of cold water into a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin powder evenly over the water. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to bloom (the gelatin will absorb the water and become a solid, rubbery mass).
- In a small saucepan, bring the remaining 1/2 cup of water to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Do not let it boil.
- Add the bloomed gelatin to the simmering water. Whisk constantly until the gelatin is fully dissolved and the mixture is clear, about 1 minute.
- Remove from heat. Stir in the pink salt and lemon juice if using.
- Pour the warm liquid into a mug and drink immediately, about 15-20 minutes before your meal.
Notes
Drink this 15-20 minutes before a meal for best satiety results. The pink salt adds electrolytes and enhances flavor. You can omit the lemon juice if you prefer a neutral taste. Do not let the water boil after adding gelatin, as high heat can break down the gelatin structure.
