Add a Nutty Boost to Meals with Homemade Flaxseed Chutney Powder

Flaxseed chutney powder is a bet practically Indian meal with its taste and health properties. This dry chutney powder made from roasted flaxseeds and spices not only enhances the flavor of the dish with its nutty hint but also contributes significantly in terms of nutrition.

 

Why flaxseed chutney is more than just a treat

 

Flaxseeds are known for their superfood status. Being the richest source of omega-3 fatty acids, they are also very high in dietary fiber and are loaded with plant-based protein and antioxidants called lignans. The nutrients in flaxseeds support the heart, aid digestion, and may even lead to general wellness.

 

When flaxseeds are roasted and ground to powder like in homemade flaxseed chutney powder, they become easier to digest for the body. This produces a spicy and crunchy mix that not only tastes good but also aids digestion, keeps cholesterol in check, and may even help with weight control.

Mix a teaspoon or two with a little ghee, oil or curd — and enjoy it as a side dip with rotis, parathas, rice, or dosas. 

 

Sprinkle it over salads, idlis, khakras, or even sandwiches for a nutty, spicy twist.

 

Add a bit to your dosa or idli batter to increase fiber and nutrition without changing the taste much. 

 

Because it’s a dry powder, it stays fresh for a long time if you store it in an airtight container in a dry place. A small jar of this chutney powder can go a long way.
