The Natural Brunch Blend and Its Ingredients

What Makes Up the Natural Brunch Blend by Terre Exotique?

For this blend, we focused on what we do best: sourcing. Organic oat flakes, crunchy pumpkin and sunflower seeds, and flax seeds are all carefully selected ingredients perfect for creating amazing brunch recipes.

What Are Organic Oat Flakes?

Organic oat flakes come from the Avena sativa plant, mainly grown for its seeds. These flakes are derived from hulled oats, steamed, and then flattened to form the flakes we know. Rich in fiber, protein, and nutrients, organic oat flakes are a healthy and natural option for a balanced breakfast. They are produced without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers, making them environmentally friendly and free of chemical residues.

Brown Flax Seeds

Organic brown flax seeds come from the Linum usitatissimum plant. These seeds are organically grown without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers. The flax plant is an annual herb with blue or white flowers. Oval-shaped brown flax seeds can be added to a variety of dishes, from yogurt to smoothies to baked goods.

Pumpkin Seeds

Pumpkin seeds are the edible seeds from cucurbits, mainly of the Cucurbita pepo variety. They are often used in cooking for their delicate flavor and crunchy texture.

Sunflower Seeds

Sunflower seeds are the edible seeds of the Helianthus annuus plant, also known as the sunflower. These seeds are widely cultivated for their oil and their use as a nutritious snack. The sunflower plant is native to North America and is characterized by its large yellow flowers. Sunflower seeds are commonly used in cooking, whether sprinkled on salads, used in energy bars, or simply enjoyed as a healthy snack.

The History of Brunch

Brunch, a delightful fusion of breakfast and lunch, has a fascinating history. Its origins date back to the 19th century in Britain, where British aristocrats began adopting the habit of having a more substantial meal than the usual Sunday breakfast. This tradition was popularized by English novelist Jane Austen in her literary works. Over the years, brunch crossed the Atlantic to become a major trend in the United States in the early 20th century. Luxury hotels in New York began serving sumptuous brunches, attracting a wealthy clientele. In the 1960s, brunch became a symbol of hippie culture and gained popularity as a friendly and casual meal. Brunch buffets and specialized restaurants emerged, offering a wide variety of dishes, from Eggs Benedict to pancakes, and morning cocktails like the mimosa. Today, brunch has become a global phenomenon with unique cultural variations in each region. It has become much more than just a meal; it's a social moment where friends and family gather to enjoy delicious food, chat, and relax on weekends. Brunch has become a pillar of contemporary gastronomy, incorporating a variety of dishes and cultures to satisfy all tastes.
