I expect the original's morphed somewhat - I used to use a recipe from
Uncle Enrico, which was just a couple of T's of ground flax seed, an
egg, and enough water to make it a good texture.

These days I use up the last couple of Ts of my cereal mix in the same
way - that's about half-and-half flax seed balanced with ground
brazils and almonds, wheatgerm, coconut, maybe some sunflower or
pumpkin seeds, cinnamon to taste. Hmmm - breakfast time : )
