Description
Flax seeds are often used in culinary applications for their health benefits. They can be ground into flaxseed meal or used whole, and are commonly added to smoothies, baked goods, yoghurt, oatmeal, and salads for a nutritional boost. Flax seeds are a popular ingredient in vegan and gluten-free recipes as they can serve as an egg substitute due to their gelatinous properties when mixed with water.
