Lotus Linseed (Flaxseed) Golden Organic 500g

Lotus Linseed (Flaxseed) Golden Organic 500g is a whole flaxseed ingredient for cereals, muffins and bread, supplied in a 500g pack. It suits cooks who want the golden linseed variety for a recipe or as an addition to a cereal mixture.

Linseed and flaxseed are two names used for this ingredient. The golden variety is a distinct product choice from the brown linseed elsewhere in the Lotus range. Select whole seeds when the recipe asks for them, rather than assuming a ground meal or blended LSA product is the same ingredient.

Use the form of linseed named in the recipe. Whole seeds can be mixed into cereals, muffins and bread, while a ground linseed meal starts with a different texture. A blended LSA ingredient also contains sunflower seed and almond, so it is not the same product as a pack of golden linseed. Keep the variety and format clear when preparing a batch. Follow the recipe amount and mixing method rather than adding the seeds without considering the other ingredients.

The 500g pack gives you room for both cereal use and baking batches. Keep it beside the seeds you use regularly, with the golden linseed clearly identified so it is easy to choose the right variety when preparing a recipe. Golden and brown linseed are separate variety choices, while whole seed and ground meal are separate format choices. Keep both distinctions clear when following a recipe.

Keep the organic golden linseed in a cool, dry place, with the pack closed between uses. Use a clean, dry measure when taking the amount for a recipe, and keep dry ingredients separate from prepared food. Retain the ingredient and allergen information with the pack when cooking for someone with a specific dietary requirement.
