[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][gap size=”1.313em”][text_output]After reading “The Power of Chia,” where I outlined that chia seeds are far more able to bind water and create a gel than flax seeds, a reader asked me whether ground flax seeds would be able to create a gel or not. Since I didn’t know, I decided to do a little science experiment in my kitchen. Check out the video for the answer![/text_output][x_video_embed type=”16:9″][/x_video_embed][/vc_column][/vc_row] [share title=”Share This Article” facebook=”true” twitter=”true” google_plus=”true” linkedin=”true” pinterest=”true” reddit=”true” email=”true”]

Neat! I would guess the ground flax would be a decent egg substitute in recipes then. But amazing how much the chia seeds gelled. I’ve heard of people using chia seeds to make raw jam really quickly, I think I may need to try that sometime!
