A chia egg is actually made with chia seed meal/flour not the bare seed. The way you make meal/flour is by grinding the chia seed in a processor such as one for your coffee beans or a spice grinder. I use mine to strictly grind seeds so that I do not mix flavors. Grind until it is a fine meal. I do about 4 ounces at a time and keep it in a little freezer safe canning jar - in the freezer. When I need a Tablespoon or so it is all ready to go. One chia egg is 1 tablespoon chia seed meal and 3 tablespoons water. These will absolutely freeze but they keep at least 30 days in an airtight container. If you do freeze some - use a freezer bag and they will still be great for about 4 months.
