Semi di Chia

These small sticky seeds come from a flowering plant of the mint family and are especially famous for being a great source of fiber and omega-3 fats (they also contain calcium, manganese, and phosphorus).

Why should you care?  Because they provide satiety, help stabilize blood sugar, and make your hair, nails, and skin more beautiful.

Where to use them : their viscous and sticky properties make them a great egg substitute in vegan recipes, an excellent base for puddings, and a nice thickener in smoothies.
