Organic Golden Linseed, also known as flaxseed, is a powerful seed packed full of nutrients. Did you know, flaxseed was cultivated in Babylon as early as 3000 BC. In the 8th century, King Charlemagne passed laws requiring people to consume it for its health benefits. Now linseed is consumed all around the world for its nutritious properties.
Linseed is most well known for its rich source of Omega-3 essential fatty acids, Lignans and fibre. Linseed may lower risk of getting serious health conditions including heart disease, diabetes and cancer.
Organic Golden Linseed is best cracked or ground before using, or chewed very well. This way your body can break down the seed and absorb the nutrients. Golden linseed is not necessarily more nutritious than brown linseed, but it does have a "nicer" flavour. Linseed can be ground with almonds and sunflower seeds to create fresh LSA. This is a great healthy addition to breakfast meals or smoothies. Whole or cracked Linseed is also a popular ingredient for many cake, muffin, bread, cracker, energy ball, muesli bar and biscuit recipes. When soaked they get gelatinous which can be used in some recipes as an egg-replacer. It can also be enjoyed tossed in a salad or in a hot savoury dish.
We recommend storing seeds well sealed either, in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight or in the fridge (especially for those in warmer climates).
