"Nigella" Seeds - 500GR

A black, drop-shaped seed with herbaceous, oregano notes.

 Nigella seeds have an oregano-like quality with herbaceous notes, a slight bitterness and a warm, toasted-onion flavour. It can be used in salads, sauces and even soups, topped at the last minute just before serving. They are a great replacement for sesame seeds without the sweet element.

It certainly does wonders in savory pastries, pilafs, curries, vegetable dishes and pickles. Nigella seeds also add great texture when sprinkled whole over baked goods or when added to dough. It is often called the “Middle Eastern poppy seed” since it is used so much on breads, pastries.
