Nigella seeds, also known as kalonji, charnushka or black onion seeds, have an earthy, nutty flavour with bitter notes. The seeds are used within the Bengali spice mix Panch Phoran, which is used to flavour beans, pulses and vegetable dishes.

Commonly used as a spice in Middle Eastern, Indian, and North African cuisines, Nigella Seeds have been used to treat a variety of ailments, including digestive issues, respiratory infections, and skin conditions. They’re also known to be a great source of nutrients, including protein, fiber, and various vitamins and minerals.

Nigella Seeds have a distinctive appearance, with their black, triangular shape and rough texture, which means they’re often used for decorative purposes in baking and other dishes.

Nigella seeds are a significant component within Jewish cuisine for rye breads, kubaneh and various other flatbreads. Try adding a sprinkle to salads and soups or scatter over potatoes before roasting. Fry in a little oil first to release the flavour!
