Flavour Profile

Fenugreek Seeds have a distinctive warm, earthy and aromatic flavour with a noticeable bitterness and subtle nutty sweetness. When lightly toasted, the seeds develop a deeper, more rounded aroma, but overheating can increase their bitterness, so they are best used with care. Use them whole, lightly crushed or ground, and experiment with different quantities to create flavour combinations that suit your own taste.
