Swiss Chard ala Sesame Seeds and Flax Oil
- Wash and break Chard leaves into smaller pieces.
- You can use your hands or pile the leaves on top on each other and cut through them with a knife making strips about 1 inch wide.
- Place in sauce pan, cover with water and boil for a minimum of 4 minutes to remove the Oxalic Acid (longer if you want the leaves to be more tender).
- While the Chard is cooking, ground the sesame seeds in a coffee grinder or your Vita Mix, making a soft powder consistency.
- *Make extra is you like and store in a glass container in the fridge to use for a few days not much longer as the oils in the sesame seeds will go rancid.
- When the Chard is cooked, drain the water off and discard.
- Place Swiss Chard in a dish.
- Sprinkle the sesame seed powder lavishly on top.
- Pour at least 1 tablespoon (per person) of Barleans High Lignan Flax Oil on top.
- Put more flax oil as desired, or if making a large dish.
- You could use olive oil in this recipe, but the flavors will change dramatically.
- Barleans High Lignan Flax Oil is what makes this combo sing.
- Sprinkle Tamari or Celtic Sea Salt on to taste.
- Be careful with the Tarmari as it is strong and can take over.
- I personally like it with salt best, buy many of my clients love the Tarmai.
- Smush the mixture slightly from the top with a spoon or fork as you see a yummy sauce melt together.
- No need to stir it.
- It is best to keep the sauce on top.
- Dont stop here.
- You can make this same topping for many of your veggie dishes.
- It is oh so easy, and makes a delicious, rich and healthy sauce instantly.
- This recipe is a good example of mixing raw and cooked together.
- The oil and seeds are raw, and the Swiss Chard is cooked, which is a great way to Make Every Bite Count.
