Suggested Culinary Uses

Flaxseeds Brown are highly versatile and can be incorporated in numerous ways:

1. Breakfast Additions

  • Add to smoothies for extra texture and nutritional value.
  • Mix with yogurt or plant-based alternatives for a crunchy topping.

2. Baking

  • Incorporate into bread, muffins, pancakes, and cookies. Ground flaxseeds can act as a binding agent, especially in gluten-free recipes.
  • Use as an egg substitute in vegan baking by mixing 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseeds with 2–3 tablespoons of water and letting it sit for a few minutes.

3. Cooking and Salads

  • Add whole or lightly toasted flaxseeds to salads, stir-fries, or grain bowls.
  • Mix with soups or stews to enrich the texture and nutritional content.
  • Sprinkle on roasted vegetables for added crunch.

How to Store Flaxseeds

To preserve the freshness and nutritional quality of Brown Flaxseeds, store them in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Ground flaxseeds should ideally be stored in the refrigerator to prevent oxidation. Whole seeds have a longer shelf life and can be kept at room temperature.
