  • ½ cup flaxseed
  • 1 tbsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Put the flaxseed into a skillet and roast for a few minutes on low heat, stirring every few seconds.
  • When seeds start to pop in larger quantity, put on a lid and take the skillet off the heat.

Notes

To get the maximum benefits of the Omega 3 fatty acids, keep inside an airtight container in the fridge and use within 3-4 days. Never buy flaxseed already ground, because Omega 3 fats oxidize and get rancid very quickly.
