Organic White Chia Seeds are just as nutritious as their friends.
Organic White Chia seeds are a variety of chia which have a creamy/white appearance. Traditional black chia is one of the most popular whole foods around and these white seeds are just as nutritious. They just look a little different. This can be really useful if you are making colourful chia puddings. If you want to use acai or spirulina to create a more colourful creation, these white chia seeds will keep those colours vibrant. White chia is transparent when soaked which makes it blend easily into any recipe.
These ancient seeds are a versatile ingredient in any whole food diet and hold a wide range of nutritional potential. White Chia seeds can easily be added to any meal for an impressive nutritional boost. After flaxseed, chia seeds have the highest content of omega-3 fatty acids in the plant based world. Just one 30g serving is considered high in protein, fibre, manganese, phosphorus and a source of calcium and magnesium.
Tiny, but powerful, these tasty white chia seeds can be used for binding or to make a delicious chia pudding with a similar texture to semolina. Soaking white chia creates a gel which can be used in recipes to give a binding effect which can be particularly useful in vegan recipes.
Aztec civilisations first grew organic white chia seeds in the pre-columbian era. These tiny seeds were so coveted that Aztec people paid their priests and nobility with these organic seeds as payment for taxes. They even ate white chia seeds for sustenance during endurance contests!
White chia seeds are vegan, paleo and ketogenic friendly. If you haven't used white chia before then soaking them in oat milk and adding a little maple syrup is a great place to start!
