Onion Seeds - Black (Nigella Seeds/ Kalonji Seeds)

Used as a spice in South Asian, Middle Eastern and European cuisines, Tropical Sun Black Onion Seeds boast a mildly peppery, bitter flavour with some of the pungency of onion, which is what gives them their name. Often dry roasted prior to cooking, they have a crunchy texture and are a common ingredient in everything from curries and stews to savoury muffins and flatbreads. They are also one of the oldest spices known to be used and were even found in Tutankhamun’s tomb, which tells us how precious these seeds really were! Enjoy.
