Flax goes rancid very quickly and can create toxic compunds. Chia seeds are available on http://www.OpalNutrition.com. They are an excellent source of protein and fiber. They have very little taste so it won’t alter the taste of the food you are adding it to. You can use them as a whole seed, or grind them. They are excellent when added to breads and muffins too!

I’m going to bake up a blueberry clafoutis for my botanist friends this weeks and will post my results.

KB: I used flax w/great results!

I substituted the following:

-cherries not strawbs
-tossed fruit w/lemon sugar (1T sugar + zest 1 lemon)
-cashew milk for soy creamer (threw a few cashews in the coffee grinder and added 1/3C water)
-flax seeds for chia (which cut down on the waiting time)

Am thinking about a non-sweet version. Mushrooms w/sage?

Another delicious looking dish with your great writing that makes it sound like it was all so effortless, and then the wonderful photography to top it all off (while making all of our mouths water) ! Visiting your site for me is like visiting Disneyland for a little kid. (Although I like Disney too! heehee)

I have a bunch of flax meal at home and a dinner party for a clafoutis-loving friend tomorrow night.
