4 servings
- ½ cup coconut aminos
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
Ingredient noteInterstitial cystitis treats warming spices like ginger as test-your-tolerance because they can irritate a sensitive bladder, but the small amount in this recipe (~3/4 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 4 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tsp fresh turmeric, finely grated, or ½ tsp ground turmeric
Ingredient noteTurmeric can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/4 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid turmeric, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ tsp ceylon cinnamon
Ingredient noteTrue ceylon cinnamon is generally considered bladder-friendly, and the small amount in this recipe (~1/16 tsp per serving) is likely fine for many people with interstitial cystitis. If you prefer to always avoid true ceylon cinnamon, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
Ingredient noteInterstitial cystitis flags onions and the allium family as common bladder irritants, especially raw, but scallions are milder and are used cooked or in small amounts here, so they are likely tolerated by many with interstitial cystitis. If you prefer to always avoid scallions, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tsp fish sauce (no additives or sugar) (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Add the coconut aminos, honey, apple cider vinegar, grated ginger, garlic, avocado oil, turmeric, and Ceylon cinnamon to a medium mixing bowl. Whisk until the honey is fully dissolved and the mixture is uniform.
- 2
Stir in the sliced scallions and the fish sauce, if using, until evenly combined.
