Flaxseed Flour

Flaxseed flour: a food rich in nutritional benefits

Nutritional benefits and use in cooking

Flaxseed flour is a food rich in nutritional benefits, obtained by grinding flax seeds. During processing, part of the oil contained in the seeds is removed because it is excessively heat-sensitive. This flour is ideal for making baked goods such as bread, cookies, fresh and dried pasta. However, it should be used in combination with flours that generate gluten, such as spelt, kamut, and wheat. From a nutritional standpoint, flaxseed flour is rich in important nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and B vitamins. Additionally, it contains antioxidants that help prevent cellular aging and maintain a healthy immune system.
