Whole Methi Fenugreek Seeds 100g by Rajah
Rajah Fenugreek Seeds have a strong tangy bitter taste that can be ground, or roasted to add a range of flavour to a variety of dishes.
USAGE / STORAGE
Fenugreek seeds are sharp, bitter, pungent legumes that are used as a spice. To enhance their aroma and nutty flavour, dry roast them on a medium flame until their colour deepens. Roast them lightly for a mellow flavour and longer for a bitter taste that works better in pickles. They can retain their flavour for years if stored unrefrigerated, in a tightly sealed container.
BENEFICIAL EFFECTS
The bitter fenugreek seed has several therapeutic powers. Due to its estrogen-like properties, fenugreek has been known historically to help increase libido. It also reduces the effect of hot flashes and mood fluctuations that are common symptoms of menopause and PMS. It is used to treat asthma and bronchitis, improve digestion and maintain a healthy metabolism. Many a nuskha (home remedies) have been administered with soaked fenugreek seeds to keep blood pressure under control.
