Black chia
Black Chia is a nutritional powerhouse in seed form — these tiny, dark seeds carry a more robust, nutty flavor than white chia and are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and vitamins that make them one of the most nutritionally dense crops a home gardener can grow. Stir them into puddings, smoothies, and overnight oats where they absorb liquid and develop a satisfying gel-like texture, or scatter over salads and baked goods for a pleasant crunch and a nutrient boost. Easy to grow and endlessly useful in the kitchen.
