These small, beige fibers boast a unique, light texture, and are known for their remarkable ability to absorb water, swelling into a gel-like consistency. When added to your recipes, they create a satisfying ingredient that encourages a delightful heartiness.

Sensory Profile
Psyllium husks have a neutral flavor profile, making them a versatile addition to both sweet and savory dishes. Their subtle taste allows the natural flavors of your culinary creations to shine, while their powdery texture blends seamlessly into batters, smoothies, and baked goods. Notably, they can also lend a pleasing thickness to soups and sauces.

Culinary Relevance

Cooking Tips
For best results, it's recommended to hydrate psyllium husks before use.
