A closer look

Flax seeds have a mild nutty taste and are commonly added to breakfast dishes, breads and homemade seed mixes.

What you can expect

Subtle and nutty, becoming more aromatic after gentle roasting.

Everyday uses

• Grind and add to oats, smoothies or yoghurt
• Mix into roti, bread, crackers and granola
• Toast for chutney powder or seed mixes

Useful note

Whole flax can pass through the digestive system with limited breakdown, so many recipes use it freshly ground. Begin with a modest amount and drink adequate fluids.

How to store

Whole seeds keep longer than ground flax. Refrigerate freshly ground flax in a well-sealed container and use promptly because its natural oils are sensitive to air and heat.

Before you buy

Check the product image and pack label for the current quantity, ingredient and allergen declarations. Colour, size, aroma or texture may vary naturally between batches. Serving suggestions are flexible and can be adjusted to personal taste.
