What Are Flax Seeds?
Flax seeds are also known as alsi in Hindi and Gujarati. These are small, flat, brown seeds. They have been grown and used by many households for thousands of years, both in cooking and in traditional Ayurvedic practice. These seeds give a mild, slightly nutty taste and turn soft when soaked or roasted. The most important compound present in these seeds is alpha-linolenic acid, a plant-based omega-3 fatty acid, along with lignans. These seeds also contain higher dietary fiber, which is why they help digestion and keep the stomach full for longer. In traditional Ayurveda, these seeds are considered warming and nourishing, used to boost digestion, support skin health, and the body's natural balance.
How Hathi Masala Cleans and Packs Flax Seeds
These seeds are very tiny, flat, and brownish in colour. Traditional cleaning machines are usually designed to clean regular, larger spices, so they can’t clean these tiny seeds properly. Hathi Masala uses automatic fine-mesh machines to clean alsi and other tiny seeds. This machine is designed specifically for small spices or seeds, such as alsi, mustard, and chia seeds. It removes fine impurities, such as tiny stones, dust, or broken pieces, without human contact at any stage. After cleaning, every batch is evaluated for any broken or undersized seeds before packing.

Recipes
How Should I Use Hathi Masala Flax Seeds at Home
Roast and eat as mukhwas: Dry-roast some of these seeds over low heat for about 2-3 minutes. Eat 1 tsp of these roasted seeds after meals each day as a mouth freshener.
Grind and mix with atta: Grind about 1-2 tsp of seeds into a fine powder, then mix it into your regular roti or paratha atta dough. This gives your roti or paratha a unique, earthy flavour.
Smoothies and shakes: Mix about 1 tbsp of whole or ground seeds into your breakfast, like a protein smoothie or shake. These seeds add a nutty flavour along with a little crunch.
Yogurt bowls or oatmeal: Stir in 1 tsp of whole, roasted seeds into the yogurt or overnight oatmeal. It gives an amazing texture with a little crunch and extra nutrients without affecting its taste.
Salads and fruit bowls: Sprinkle a few roasted seeds directly over your everyday vegetable salads or fruit bowls to add a light, nutty twist.
Flaxseed water: Soak 1 tbsp seeds in a glass of water, and let it sit overnight. Drink a glass of water with the seeds in it in the morning on an empty stomach. This is a traditional Ayurvedic practice that many Indian families adopted.

Ingredients
FAQ
What are alsi seeds used for?
These seeds are mostly added to smoothies, yogurt bowls, oatmeal, roti dough, and salads to get their best nutritional value. You can also eat them roasted as mukhwas. The most traditional use of these seeds in Indian kitchens is to make mukhwass by roasting them with some turmeric and salt.
How many alsi seeds can I eat in a day?
1-2 tbsp (10-20 g) per day is the proper amount for most adults. Always start with 1 tbsp if you are eating them for the first time. It has a high fiber content, which can make you feel heavy if you eat too many seeds.
Should I eat alsi seeds raw, roasted, or ground?
Roasted or ground seeds are always better than raw seeds. If you eat raw flax seeds, the outer shell can pass through the body undigested, so some nutrients won't be absorbed. Roasting reduces the shell's hardness and makes omega-3 fatty acids and fiber more readily available to the body.
How are alsi seeds and chia seeds different?
Both are rich in fiber with omega-3, but they’re different from each other. You need to roast or grind flax seeds to get the full nutritional benefits. You can eat chia seeds by soaking them whole in water. Chia seeds contain high calcium content, while flax seeds contain a slightly higher omega-3 content.
Are hathi masala flax seeds cleaned and free from stones?
Yes. Hathi Masala uses an automatic fine-mesh machine to clean alsi seeds. This machine is designed only for tiny seeds and removes fine impurities, such as small stones, broken seeds, and dust, without any human contact.
How should I store alsi seeds at home?
Transfer these seeds to an airtight glass or plastic container. Store it in a cool, dry spot away from moisture and direct sunlight. These seeds will absorb moisture from the air if left open, which can reduce their shelf life. Best consumed within 6-12 months of opening.
Can children and older family members eat alsi seeds?
Yes. You can use these seeds in moderate amounts for cooking. Alsi seeds are an amazing natural food, safe for almost everyone. For young kids, always use ground, roasted, or soaked flax seeds rather than whole. For any specific health conditions, check with a doctor before eating them regularly.
Are hathi masala flax seeds free from artificial additives?
Yes. Hathi masala flax seeds contain only a single ingredient: whole alsi seeds. No preservatives, no artificial colour, no fillers are added. Each batch is lab-tested for 20+ parameters before dispatch.
