How do you eat flax seeds?

i make a flax seed powder.. i take a minimum quantity like for a week..roast it.. fry a little jeera, pepper, red chillies and hing..grind it coarsely just like dal powder..i use this with my rasam, curds..and even idlis/dosas..i don't find the difference.

i also incorporate it in my gravies/ rotis.. soups... you don't need to drink it with water.. stop thinking of it as a medicine.. it is a little nutty, oily flavour just like sesame.. since we are new to flax seeds, it takes some time for us to accept..

flax seed is a great ingredient that works well as a egg substitute in baking...

 

I take it with oats porridge. You will not feel any odd taste. As Shanvy said I too add it to rasam, sambar, pulikachal, chappathi sabjis etc. You too can take it this way.

 

I add the powder to my Atta , to Dal when I am cooking. It also goes in cakes/cookies I bake.

 

Hi Viiksha,

If u need to take it as a compulsion, u try to start liking it with hot water..flax powder is readily available...
else u can as well mix with milk n have...

 

I mixed the powder with dosa batter ,wheat dough to make dosa and chappathi ...

 

shobana, this seems to be a good option
