Flax Seed MicroGreens and Cumin – A Great Combination

Posted on May 9, 2021

Flax seed microgreens have recently gotten a lot of attention. A few of the health benefits associated with eating microgreens are improved digestion, reduction of inflammation and allergies, increased energy levels, and a decrease in LDL cholesterol. It seems that people who eat more often are more likely to benefit from eating microgreens. You may be wondering how you can reap the maximum benefit from eating microgreens. The following article is designed to give you information regarding how you can benefit from this delicious new food.

One of the most common ways to make sure you get all the nutrients that go into growing and eating microgreens is to grow them with organic wheat flour. You can buy organic wheat flour at your local nutrition store or online. When purchasing it, make sure to select one that is made of organic ingredients. Avoid all those “wheat chips” or “jelly corn” chips that are loaded with unhealthy ingredients and fillers. Organic wheat flour will provide you with all of the nutrients necessary for growing and cooking with microgreens.

Microgreens come from cumin seeds. Cumin seeds are high in fiber, which means consuming them is not only good for your digestion, but it is good for your heart as well. Some people believe consuming microgreens is beneficial for those with acid reflux or heartburn. It appears that chilies and wheat flour combine well in creating microgreens that contain a high level of fat and protein. Therefore, if you suffer from either of these conditions it may be the perfect remedy for you.

If you enjoy eating spicy foods and love eating chilies you should try growing microgreens with cumin seeds. If you combine cumin seeds with chilies, you will have the ultimate spicy meal! Typically, seeds are ground and mixed with water then ground again until they form a powdery substance.

You can eat these flakes by themselves or you can add them to any dish you would like to make. Many recipes include cumin and flax seed powder to make a light yet delicious snack. If you’re a little bit adventurous you can even use them as a topping for a traditional recipe. A favorite of mine is called black bean dip. You simply combine softened, chopped cumin seeds with softened, chopped cream cheese in a bowl and mix thoroughly before serving.

Chilies are also great ingredients in flax seed microgreens. I have tried many different chili recipes using cumin as well as other ingredients and they always taste great. The best way to get the best taste from your chili is to make it the night before and reheat it the next day. This ensures that the flavors are locked in all day and is the best way to avoid hot spots. Feel free to add additional hot pepper sauce if you wish.

Not only are cumin seeds wonderful in their natural state, but they are also great for your health overall. These little seeds are filled with helpful vitamins and minerals your body needs. They help your digestive system and aid in weight loss because they are an appetite suppressant. They also contain antioxidants, which help protect your liver and gastrointestinal system from damage caused by free radicals. Because they contain healthy fats, livers don’t have to work as hard to process fat.

While flax seed microgreens and cumin are naturally healthy, don’t overdo them. These additions can actually enhance your flavor and aroma! Experiment by trying a few different varieties. Who knows, you may find yourself not only having more energy, but a healthier body too. Enjoy!
