Do you need to soak chia seeds before eating?
You do not need to soak chia seeds before eating them, but soaked and raw chia seeds do have slightly different health benefits. You can eat chia seeds raw and enjoy their energy and nutrients, but eating a spoonful of chia seeds raw can also be unpleasant, as they might stick to your teeth and become dry.
How do you prepare fresh chia seeds?
Soak the seeds in almond milk or water (1/4 cup seeds to 1 cup liquid) until they take on a chewy texture reminiscent of tapioca pudding, about 20 minutes. Soaked chia seeds can be refrigerated for up to 5 days, so you can make a big batch at the start of the week.
