Flax seed funny aftertaste

dinka

I ran into the problem with using Flax seeds, when i make anyhting with it that requirs dehidration the food has some strange unpleasant aftertaste. Its like bitter or something... does anybody has the same problem? I am totally lost and not really sure what i can substitute it with, i was thinking maybe Wheat Germ or somehting? It anoys hell out of me that i cant make crakers and other stuff.

I tied different flax, already ground up, tried grouning it myself, i keep it in the fridge so it will not go bad.

Please help

I totally agree!! Flax blended into things in small quantities - like in smoothies - is fine. But anything dehydrated with flax just tastes blech to me.

If the reciepie is called for grounded flax should i just grind the chia seeds? And i been keeping falx seeds in the fridge and i guess that did not do the trick....
