RE: Piña Colada Chia Seed Pudding with Superfood Toppings
Love those power Chia seeds! Do you soak them for a few minutes first, before using them? I have read that this helps by turning them in to a more gelatinous form.
Readers might find this interesting, I am looking into this myself: "Growing and harvesting Chia" - https://dengarden.com/gardening/How-I-grow-and-harvest-organic-Chia
Thanks for sharing! I'll definitely try to grow some once we move house. Yes, they turn into gelatine, hence their use to make pudding or jam. When you blend them or mix them with any liquid they will start to form a pudding or jam. You can soak them in water too for a vegan-style "egg" you can use as a substitute in baked goods. Have a great day!
