Flax Seed

I am having trouble grinding my flax. It keeps binding down everything I put it in and still has a massive amount of whole seeds in it. I have used my Vita-mix, food processor, coffee grinder, and magic bullet. Should I dehydrate them first?

  • How do you store whole flax seeds? Do you refrigerate them or in a jar in the pantry?

  • I store my ground flax seeds in the freezer too.. I thought that was because flax seeds can go rancid quickly once they have been ground into meal?

    I also only grind dry flax seeds. But if you soak them you can make raw crackers and stuff.

  • it has to be a whole seed for the enzymes to activate.

  • Flaxseeds really are so great. I love that you can add them to almost anything. There is a great article here at http://www.theflaxseedstore.com/flaxseed_benefits which discusses 50 Flaxseed Benefits & Facts.
