About the product

Ziółko Golden Flaxseed is the light-coloured variety of common flax (Linum usitatissimum) - the same species as brown flaxseed, distinguished only by the pale golden hue of its seeds. The small, glossy grains have a warm, straw-like colour and a noticeably more delicate aroma. The raw material comes from Polish producer Ziółko and is verified in their own laboratory for microbiological purity and pesticide residues.

The golden seeds are subtler in flavour than brown flaxseed, making them ideal for light-coloured batters and smoothies where appearance matters. When soaked in water they release a smooth, natural plant gel - a versatile culinary ingredient for thickening and binding.

• Light golden variety - milder and more delicate in flavour than brown flaxseed
• Natural plant gel when soaked - thickener for puddings and a binder in vegan baking
• Discreet addition - does not alter the colour of light-coloured dishes
• Vegan, free from preservatives, flavourings and colours

Ingredients

Golden flaxseed, whole seeds (Linum usitatissimum) 100%.

For whom

For anyone looking to enrich light-coloured baked goods, porridge and smoothies with a nutty note and a natural gel, without changing their colour. An excellent choice for vegan cooking.

How to use

To make flax gel, pour hot water over 1-2 tablespoons of seeds and leave to stand for 10-15 minutes. Add whole seeds to bread, muesli and salads; grind just before use for porridge and smoothies. In baking, flax gel made from ground seeds can replace an egg.

Storage
