Heera Linseed (Alsi/Flaxseed)

Heera Linseed (Alsi / Flaxseed) 100g — The Omega-3 Superfood Seed for Cooking, Baking & Wellness

Small, glossy, and extraordinarily nutritious, linseed — known as alsi in Hindi and Urdu — has been a staple of South Asian kitchens and traditional wellness practices for centuries. Heera Linseed delivers whole, unprocessed flaxseeds packed with plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fibre, and lignans — making them one of the most powerful nutritional additions you can make to your daily diet, and one of the most affordable.

Whether you’re kneading them into roti dough, blending them into a morning smoothie, stirring into porridge, or simply dry-roasting and eating them as a traditional alsi chutney, these seeds punch well above their weight in both nutrition and flavour.

How to Use Heera Linseed

• Roti & Paratha Dough — knead whole or coarsely ground alsi seeds into your roti or paratha dough for a nuttier flavour and a significant nutritional boost. A traditional practice in many North Indian and Pakistani households
• Alsi Ki Chutney — dry-roast until they pop, grind coarsely with salt, red chilli, and garlic for a traditional Maharashtrian or Rajasthani alsi chutney — packed with flavour and nutrients
• Smoothies & Juices — blend a tablespoon of whole or ground flaxseed into morning smoothies for an omega-3 and fibre hit without altering the flavour significantly
• Porridge & Overnight Oats — stir into oats or scatter over the top with fruit and honey for a nutritionally supercharged breakfast
• Yoghurt & Raita — dry-roast and stir into plain yoghurt or raita for added crunch and a subtly nutty flavour
• Baking — add to bread doughs, muffin batters, and energy balls. Ground flaxseed mixed with water also works as a vegan egg substitute (1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water = 1 egg)
• Salad Topping — scatter over green salads, grain bowls, and roasted vegetable dishes for added texture and nutrition

Tip: Whole flaxseeds can pass through the digestive system largely undigested. For maximum nutritional benefit, grind them in a spice grinder or blender before adding to food. Store ground flaxseed in an airtight container in the fridge and use within 2 weeks.
