Nigella Seeds

Description

Nigella seeds, aka Baraka seeds, are matte black seeds from the kalonji herb. They have a chewy texture and oregano-black pepper notes. To bring out the full flavours of nigella seeds, dry-fry them, or grind them in a pestle and mortar. Try sprinkling some nigella seeds over Moroccan bread and Indian naan, or incorporate them into tagines, pickles and curries – particularly slow braised dishes such as kormas.
