Chia absorbs 9 times its weight in water, which is the reason behind the 9:1 ratio. For thicker or thinner gel, adjust this ratio accordingly

Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 Tbsp Chia Seeds
  • 450 mL water

Preparation

Step 1

Mix together chia and water. Let chia stand for 30 minutes, stirring with a whisk to prevent clumping.
