We sell nigella seeds in amounts starting at half a tablespoonful.
Discover the mysterious little seeds scattered atop naan bread and Middle Eastern pastries. Nigella seeds—sometimes called black cumin or kalonji—offer a captivating flavor: slightly peppery, faintly onion-like, with oregano and nutty undertones. Essential in Indian pickles, Bengali five-spice blends, and Turkish breads. Sprinkle over flatbreads, salads, and roasted vegetables for dramatic visual contrast and subtle crunch. Stir into egg dishes, fold into savory pastries, or toast lightly to release their aromatic complexity. Remarkably versatile yet underused in Western kitchens. These tiny black gems add intrigue and authenticity wherever they land.
