How to Use

1.      Tempering (Tarka): Sauté a small pinch in hot oil or ghee with dried chilies to flavor Dal, Sabzi, or fish curries. (Avoid over-browning to prevent excessive bitterness).

2.      Health Water: Soak a teaspoon of seeds in a glass of water overnight and drink it on an empty stomach in the morning for metabolic support.

3.      Homemade Pickles: Use whole seeds in oil-based pickles for a classic tangy and bitter crunch.

4.      Sprouts: Soak and sprout the seeds to add to salads for a nutrient-dense, crunchy topping with a milder flavor.

5.      Pro Tip: If you find the flavor too bitter, lightly dry-roast the seeds before use to bring out their nuttier, sweeter notes.
