A traditional taste and a source of omega-3. This very popular bread contains 7 different cereals: wheat, flax, sunflower, rye, sesame, oats, and barley. This variety provides a broader spectrum of nutritional values. Its airy texture and taste are well appreciated. In addition, it is a source of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (alpha linoleic acid), an antioxidant essential for cardiovascular health. Flaxseeds are sprouted in our poolish before cooking. Thus the omega-3 fatty acid becomes available for human digestion even if the seed is not crushed during chewing; otherwise the flaxseed goes straight ahead along with its nutritional benefits. Grinding the seed before cooking will oxidize the omega-3 and also lose its nutritional benefits. So this bread is truly a source of omega-3 unlike most other breads that boast about it.
