Flax seeds are small, flat, and oval-shaped seeds with a hard outer shell that ranges in color from golden yellow to reddish-brown. They have a subtle, earthy, and slightly nutty flavor. Flax seeds are renowned for their impressive nutritional profile, often hailed as a superfood due to their high content of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and lignans (plant compounds with antioxidant properties).
They are a versatile ingredient and can be used whole or ground into flaxseed meal. When ground, flax seeds are more easily digestible, allowing the body to absorb their nutrients more efficiently. When mixed with water, ground flax seeds form a gel-like consistency, making them a popular egg substitute in vegan baking. Additionally, they can be sprinkled on cereals, yogurt, or blended into smoothies for an extra nutritional boost.
Rich in dietary fiber, flax seeds promote digestive health and are known for their cholesterol-lowering and heart-health benefits. Their combination of healthy fats and fiber makes them a valuable addition to a balanced diet.
