Hi there! Fun contest.
So, 1) Salba can replace one egg by mixing 2 tablespoons Salba with half a cup of cold water. It will form 1/4 cup gel that is used to replace the egg in baking.
And 2) Each 2 tablespoons of salba provides over 2400mg of omgega-3.
Fantastic blog, books, recipes, writing. Thanks!

I'm new to the vegan world (trying to incorporate vegan and vegetarian recipes and lifestyles into our regular diet/life) and love your site...unfortunately I had to look up the answers...but here they are anyway.
1. mix 2 tablespoons of salba and 1/2 cup of water to replace an egg

Great contest, Dreena!
1.) 1/4 cup Salba® Gel as made with 2 tbsp of ground Salba® and 1/2 cup cold water can replace 1 egg
2.) 2 TBSP of salba seed contains 5000 mg of omega 3. When I looked up what the RDI for omega 3 was I was suprised there isn't one established yet! But I did find that Salba's ratio of Omega 3/6 is 3:1 which is great.
1- grind two TBSP salba & mix with .5 cups cold water for each egg sub.
2- Omega-3 Fatty Acid 02.50 g, Omega-6 Fatty Acid 0.76 g, Omega-9 Fatty Acid 00.25 g
