About Fenugreek

Fenugreek seeds, or 'Methi', have a unique, slightly bitter taste with a hint of maple. When cooked, the bitterness mellows, adding a complex, savory depth to dishes. They are a common ingredient in Indian curries, pickles, and lentil dishes, and are also used for their numerous health benefits.
