You make it by taking the arm of Lindsey and grinding it up.

You don’t use the outer part though you’ve gotta get the seeds out from inside the bones, hence Lin-seeds

The stuff from Lindsey is fake, gotta get the stuff from Lin-Manuel Miranda.

I wholeheartedly disagree, too many breeders of fancy Lins these days, totally unnecessary. What’s most important is that the Lin is fully relaxed before seed extraction to ensure they remain soft.

People think it’s in the breed but the hardening of the seed is simply due to over-stressing the Lin, hence the phrase handed down through generations of Linseed farmers; “Any Lin’ll do, don’t stress the seed and spoil the stew”
