About the Chia Seeds

One question I’ve received quite a bit is whether the chia seeds should be soaked before adding them to the salad.

For my version, I did not soak the chia seeds first. I found that the moisture from the fresh fruit, combined with the lime juice and honey, was enough for my taste. However, if you prefer softened chia seeds or simply enjoy their texture after soaking, feel free to soak them beforehand. Either method works—it really comes down to personal preference!
