Use Salba much like flax. Salba is a taste-neutral, functional ingredient that can be incorporated into any recipe or meal. Unlike other whole grains, Salba does not need to be ground before use. Salba grain is frequently added to cereal, yogurt, oatmeal, soups, sandwiches, salads, smoothies and baked goods. It can also be found in everyday foods such as salsa, pretzels, baked potato crisps, tortillas, tortilla chips, baby foods, and baked goods. How is Salba different from Chia? Salba and Chia are from the same species - Salvia hispanica L. - but while Salba is composed of two distinct registered varieties (Sahi Alba 911 & 912), Chia is made up of many different and unregistered wild strains of the species, the nutritional consistency of which can vary greatly. It's a little like comparing a bottle of Cabernet from a single grape variety to table wine made from a number of different grapes: both are 'red wine', but the quality and profile of each is quite different. Salba is grown only under strictly controlled conditions in Peru. Due to the resulting nutritional consistency, Salba is the only variety of Salvia hispanica L. that has undergone intensive peer reviewed clinical research with proven beneficial results1. Chia research has confirmed that it can not claim the same clinically proven health benefits2. Salba is white and blends easily into almost any food. Chia seeds are mostly black. Salba has more Omega 3's, protein, potassium, calcium and iron than Chia.
