Milk and Chia Seeds Popsicle

When I was thinking of another popsicle recipe, I remembered the pack of chia seeds which Priya gave during a meet. So I combined the milk pospsicle recipe with some chia seeds and thus a delicious popsicle resulted. But before going into the recipe, I would like to share with you the day’s incident when I made these popsicles. I had both chia seeds and black poppy seeds in my fridge. I even had written down on the pack as chia seeds as I know I would become confused. That day, when I prepared the milk mix and I went to bring the chia seeds. I completely forgot about the pack written as chia seeds and brought with me a pack of black seeds. My mind was else where and was completely blocked, I think. I added a table spoon of the seeds to the milk and let it sit for 10 minutes. When I returned back, the seeds were the same size and I was confused. Only then my mental block cleared and I saw my mistake. I have added poppy seeds instead of chia seeds. I then filtered the milk and added chia again and let it set in the kulfi moulds. So learn from my mistake. Do not add anything before you are 100% sure about the ingredient.

Coming to the final popsicle, I was 100% sure that my daughter will not taste it after looking at those black seeds studded on top. So I removed just one popsicle from the mould and asked her to give it a try. If she rejects, at least I can enjoy it. But she just loved it and I had to remove one more popsicle from the mould. In fact, she and hubby took turns in finishing off the entire batch.  Chia seeds are very healthy and I was so happy that I could make my daughter relish it. When it comes to photographing ice creams and popsicles, my mind goes really blank. I was out of ideas when taking the photos. So bear with the normal photos. Whatever the photo looks like, this was one delicious frozen treat which was loved by all.
