Method

1Steep chamomile tea bags in 2 cups hot filtered water for 5 minutes. Remove bags and reserve the chamomile tea.

2Rinse jasmine rice until water runs clear. In a saucepan, combine rice with 1.5 cups of the chamomile tea. Bring to boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 18 minutes.

3Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add diced zucchini and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender.

4Add broccoli florets to the pan with zucchini. Cook for 4-5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.

5Season vegetables with turmeric, black pepper, and half the sea salt. Stir gently to combine.

6Once rice is cooked, fluff with a fork and let rest for 2 minutes. Stir in remaining olive oil and sea salt.

7Divide chamomile rice between two bowls. Top with the cooked vegetables.

8Sprinkle with fresh basil, parsley, and hemp seeds. Drizzle with fresh lemon juice before serving.

Clinical Note

Better Kitchen is a functional nutrition companion, not a replacement for medical care. MCAS and HAT are highly individual — always introduce new foods slowly and track reactions with your allergist or immunologist.
