Description
Chia seeds (Salvia hispanica) originate from Mexico, where they were already cultivated by the Aztecs.
They have a neutral flavor and, when soaked in water, milk or juice, they make a natural jelly, ideal for chia pudding and fasting or vegan recipes.
They are rich in fiber and omega-3 fatty acids (ALA) and a source of plant-based protein.
They are added to yogurt, oatmeal, smoothies, salads, and doughs for bread and cookies.
How are chia seeds eaten? What do they go with?
Chia seeds are consumed raw or soaked, depending on the recipe and desired result. They can be soaked in water, plant-based or animal-based milk for 2–3 hours or overnight to create a natural gel. This form is ideal for making chia pudding or as a natural egg substitute.
They go perfectly with yogurt, smoothies, oats, fruit, honey and cereals. They can also be added to salads, soups or used in doughs for bread and cookies. Their taste is neutral, which allows them to be easily combined in both sweet and savory preparations.
A popular choice is chia with water and lemon, as a refreshing drink. Another popular use is chia with yogurt and fruit as a filling breakfast or light snack.
