You can mix this podi with steaming hot rice topped with a tsp of ghee and have it or you can have it as a side dish for idli and dosa. Note – Grinding or roasting flax breaks the seed coat making all the nutrients easy to digest. Ground flaxseed is best stored refrigerated in an opaque container and will keep at least 90 days. Because ground flaxseed flows readily even when frozen, many choose to store ground flaxseed in the freezer for even longer shelf life. Others simply grind flaxseed as they use it to ensure utmost freshness. Roasted flaxseed should also be refrigerated or frozen.
