Toast the flax seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until they become golden and aromatic. Remove from heat and let them cool slightly.

Chop the fresh parsley finely and stir it into the sauce. Reserve a small amount for garnish if desired.

Transfer the dipping sauce to a serving bowl, garnish with the reserved parsley, and optionally drizzle with a touch of olive oil for extra flavor.
