Preparation
  1. Rinse black beans thoroughly under cool running water and soak them in warm water for 30 minutes to soften. After soaking, drain the beans.

  4. Rinse the black sesame seeds and toast them in a dry pan for about 5-7 minutes until fragrant, stirring often.
  5. Once all ingredients have cooled, grind each separately into a fine powder using a spice grinder or powerful blender.
  6. Combine all the ground powders in a large bowl, mixing thoroughly for even distribution.
  7. Store Three Blacks Powder in a dry jar. For daily use, mix 2 tablespoons of the powder with hot water, milk, or yogurt.
