  3. Once the water comes to a boil, stir gently, but constantly.
  4. ONce a thin, foamy jelly forms, turn the eheat down al ittle, but keep stirring, watching for the point when you let the seeds settle for a second and they suspend in the clear jelly instead of sinking to the bottom.
  5. At this point, turn off the heat, give one last stir, and immediately pour the liquid and seeds into a strainer over a bowl.
  6. Let the gel strain out of the seeds (but don't let the gel dry in there). Repeat if there are any stray seeds in the gel.
  7. Use a whisk and quikly beat the gel (10 sec) to break up any strands.

I have been making my own flax seed gel for months, and I learned quickly that it was the key to loving my long, curly hair. It makes it touchably soft, and defines my curls like no storebought product ever could. This recipe is where it all began for me, and it has evolved into a wonderful product that hasn't failed me once in over 10 months, and who else can say that about their hair products? I have been selling my Gelee and Brulee, now both proudly made with Pizzey's golden flax seeds, from my Etsy shop since February (http://www.BotticelliBotanicals.etsy.com), and I have received so much wonderful feedback that it makes my head spin. Imagine - one product so simple that you can make it in your own kitchen, but it makes curly hair look and feel like silk! Thank you FlaxMatters, for carrying such a superior product, and helping me to supply curly haired lovelies all over the world with the products they need to make their hair beautiful and manageable!
