Foodin Domestic hemp seeds, 500g

Product and flavour

High-quality Finnish hemp seed of the Finola variety is a top-grade seed for versatile baking and cooking. The seed has a strong, fairly nutty flavour. The shell of hemp seeds is hard and rather bitter in taste, but it protects the delicate fatty acids from light and oxidation. Like nuts, the seeds are an extremely versatile source of nutrition. They are very easy to add to all kinds of snacks, pastries, salads and hot dishes, or to enjoy just as they are. Finnish hemp seed gives the finishing touch to ice cream servings and other desserts in a summery and eye-catching way!

Serving ideas

In a salad or muesli to add texture and substance. For making hemp milk: blend about 1 dl of hemp seeds with roughly one litre of water. Strain out the fibres and, if you like, sweeten the milk with honey, for example. The milk keeps for a short while in the fridge and can be enjoyed as such or used as a base for a smoothie or another dessert. As a packed snack, a between-meals bite or nibbles just as they are.

Do hemp seeds contain intoxicating substances?

Although both hemp and marijuana are classified as the plant cannabis sativa, there are hundreds of different varieties of the plant. Hemp seeds used as food have no intoxicating properties, and the raw materials we use do not contain THC.

Recommended daily amount

The general recommended daily amount of seeds for an adult is about two tablespoons, and one for a child. We do, however, test every incoming batch, and we do not bring to market any products with high levels of nickel or cadmium.
