Chia seeds: tiny grains that turn liquid into pudding
Liovela chia seeds – 100% Salvia hispanica seeds.
The ingredients list has one line: chia seeds (Salvia hispanica). Small, smooth grains that form a gel coating in liquid and swell. That is why chia becomes pudding, and a teaspoon in yoghurt, porridge or a smoothie changes its texture. The product is high in fibre and a source of protein, with less than 0.01 g of salt per 100 g.
What it's for
Three main ways to use it
The best-known way
Pour plant-based drink or water over the seeds at roughly 1:5 and leave for at least 30 minutes. You then have a ready pudding to serve with fruit.
Porridge, muesli, yoghurt
Add 1–2 teaspoons to porridge, muesli or yoghurt. The simplest way, with no preparation at all.
Smoothie and dough
Stir 1–2 teaspoons into a smoothie or add them to dough. In a smoothie the seeds thicken it slightly.
The 1:5 ratio
How to make pudding that works
Stick to a ratio of about 1:5: for example 2 tablespoons of seeds to 150 ml of liquid. Pour over, stir well, and stir again after a few minutes so the seeds do not clump.
Leave for at least 30 minutes, ideally in the fridge. Want it thicker? Use less liquid or wait longer.

Chia seeds: 5 ideas
With plant-based drink
Pour 150 ml of plant-based drink over 2 tablespoons of seeds, stir, stir again after a few minutes and leave for 30 minutes. Top with fruit.
A bowl topping
Sprinkle 1–2 teaspoons over finished porridge. The seeds add a light crunch.
A quick breakfast
Stir 1–2 teaspoons into a portion of yoghurt and leave for a few minutes until the seeds swell.
A thicker texture
Add 1–2 teaspoons to the blender with the fruit. The seeds thicken the drink slightly.
In the dough
Add 1–2 teaspoons of seeds to muffin, bread or flatbread dough. They give a light crunch and look pretty in a cross-section.
Add Liovela chia seeds to your basket and make your first pudding.
Storage
A simple rule
Keep the seeds in a dry, cool place and close the pack well after opening.
They stay loose and easy to measure.
