Hi listmates. Here are the responses I received following my post on
flax seeds. Seems many already use them and others wanted a bit more
info on how to use them. If anyone would like to post their uses of
flax seeds and/or flax oil as a healthy addition to their diet--it
would be appreciated by many. Blessings, Lorri in Colorado
<<I use an ordinary blender to grind flax seeds. I put them in one of
the small blender jars, about 1/2 pint. I grind enough for two or
three days and keep them in the small jar in the fridge.>>
<<Ever try to just add them to breads or cookies, etc? I would think
that they would have the same good effect as ground. What do you
think?>>
<<I have found that the coffee grinder is a pain to clean...so I use my
blender to grind my seeds. I have the small one cup attachment that
makes it real simple to grind small amounts at a time. When i grind
flaxseed to make my granola I always grind enough for two batches and
store the extra one in a freezer bag until I use it... saves time and
cleaning up twice!>>
<<thanks for the info. I just bought some flax seeds yesterday as a
matter of fact, and have trouble accessing the archives, so I wasn't
sure if a celiac could have them! Thanks.>>
<<Glad to see your post on flax seeds...I try to eat
some every day, usually mixed in with pear sauce
(Gerber baby food).
I grind mine in a blender...works great (for those who
don't have a coffee grinder).
Just thought I'd tell you thanks for the info and
recipe...I'm one who gets constipated when I've
accidently ingest gluten, so tips like this are so
welcome!>>
