    for the chia, worth tossing them in a coffee/spice grinder if you don’t want whole chia seed texture in the baked good (though they’re a decent poppyseed substitute imho)

    works wonders for flax as well, but yeah flax is really the C tier of egg replacers lol

    i also just had the thought that basil seeds might work similarly to chia seeds. they also gel

    In baking, in many cases, yes

    For an omelette, no

    for baking, I mix 1 tsp psyllium with 3 Tbsp room temperature water and let it sit for about 5 minutes (or until an egg-like viscosity)

    psylli-egg has a more neutral texture and flavor than a flax or chia egg. unlike flax it won’t go rancid (I’m still using a large bucket of it that’s years old and hasn’t changed flavor or effectiveness). its only real downside is it takes slightly longer to hydrate

    I personally wouldn’t try to replicate a shakshuka or anything with it but if you try let me know how it goes haha
