Hemp produces some of the most nutritional seeds in the world, with a perfect balance of proteins, vitamins, and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Hemp seed, which is flat and white with a gray spot, can be used by people who are allergic to nuts. It works well in salads and baked goods, can be used as a nutritional bowl topper, and can be added to smoothies. Its slight fishy odor gives recipes a subtle oceanic flavor.
