British Golden Linseed

What Is Linseed?

Linseeds are ancient seeds also known as flaxseeds or flax. Golden linseeds have a nutty taste and are a little milder than brown linseed. 

Cooking Golden Linseed 

As the body finds it more difficult to absorb the goodness inside the seed shell, you will get the most benefits from them if you soak them overnight or grind them yourself.

Once ground they can quickly deteriorate, so I would recommend grinding them as you need. 

Linseeds are so versatile. You can add them to almost anything including breads, biscuits, cakes, muesli, porridge, salad, soup, curry and stir fry dishes.

However, be beware of their fibre content and use sparingly until you know how your body reacts to them, so they don’t move through you too fast!

Also, if you don't pre-soak them, make sure you increase your liquid intake a little as they like to absorb water.
