Siemieniotka (flaxseed and wheat porridge)

Instructions

1. Quickly rinse the flaxseeds under cold water, then drain them.
2. Coarsely crush them in a coffee grinder or with a mortar to release their flavour, without reducing them to powder.
3. In a saucepan, bring the milk to a simmer with the salt, then pour the seeds in a steady stream while stirring.
4. Lower the heat to minimum and cook for 30 minutes, stirring often so the porridge doesn't stick.
5. Add the sugar, butter, cinnamon and zest. Keep cooking for 5 minutes until it is smooth and creamy.
6. Serve warm, with soaked raisins, a drizzle of honey and a few crushed walnuts.
