Recipe
Chia pudding with yoghurt and strawberries
Chia pudding has now become a fixed element in superfood cuisine. There are so many different ways to use chia and you never get tired of it! For example, this delicious chia pudding contains both black and white chia. In terms of nutritional value, there is no real difference between the black and white seeds, although the black ones contain more anti-oxidants, while the white ones give the finished dish a ‘more attractive’ appearance, comparable with a classic pudding. Both seeds are derived from the same plant (Salvia hispanica) and come from South America. Whether a plant gives white seeds or black seeds is dependent on its genotype (genetic variation).
