How to Make a Flax Cracker

Step-by-Step Guide

1. 1

   Step 1: Start with the freshest and cleanest organically grown flax seed available.

   Bulk flax seed often contains lots of weed seeds and broken flax seeds, and this will cause your flax crackers to taste bitter or rancid.
   
   If you want the best tasting flax cracker, then you have to use the best tasting flax seed. ,, Wait about 5 minutes and stir again.
   
   Repeat this process every 5 minutes about 4 times.
   
   Then repeat the stirring process every 15 minutes about 3 times.
   
   When the flax seed starts to absorb the water it becomes a gelatinous gooey mixture, and if you don't follow this process the flax seeds will clump together., Example recipes:
   Onion Garlic
   - tomato, garlic and onion; Lemon Pie
   - lemon juice and agave nectar; Pina Colada
