UK Atkineers - where do you get your flax seed?

[Zarabelle]

Hi

I want to try some of the recipes but the only place I've seen flax seed was in Sainsburys for £10! Is this right?

Thanks

Hi Zarabelle

Do you have a Holland and Barrett near you at all, they sell Linseed and it's a whole lot cheaper than 10.00 !

Yes, Holland and Barratt or any Health Food shop.

Both Brown and Golden Linseed is available in simple packaging or in branded boxes.

The price and the colour.

Content and taste are the same.

I think someone (might have been Book) a while back posted that they used the brown for cereal-type dishes and the golden for baking purposes.

If I flavour the batter with lenon I use golden flax, if with chocholate, brown. The difference is only cosmetic!
