Flax- Seeds Mukhwas/ Mouthfreshner

Flax Seeds are very healthy. It helps to reduce cancer, stroke, diabetes and heart disease. It contains Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Fiber (soluble and insoluble). Now after looking so many benefits I thought of making Flax Seeds as Mukhwas/Mouthfreshner. 

For preparing Flax Seeds mukhwas you will need:-

2 cups of Flax Seeds

Pinch of turmeric powder (optional)

Salt to taste

1 lemon juice

Take a bowl(preferably broad) and add all the ingredients to it and mix it well. Allow it to sit about 5-6 hours. In between mix it well about 2-3 times so that it does not get lumpy. After you feel that the flax seeds have absorbed all the lemon juice and salt. Then take the mixture to a non stick pan and roast at low temperature till you find it crispy. It will take around 15-20 minutes. Run your spatula continuously, don't leave it to get it crispy on its own. After you find it crispy remove the mixture from stove and let it cool down completely. 

You can then store it in airtight container, it will stay good for around 2-3 months.
