Botanical Name: Trigonella foenum-graecum
Aromatic, musky, savoury and so addictive, Fenugreek leaf is the secret ingredient of many world-known Indian dishes.
Fenugreek leaf, also known as ‘Kasuri Methi’ or ‘Greek Hay plant’, belongs to the legume family. It is indigenous to the Indian subcontinent and Mediterranean regions and is one of the oldest known herbs with usage dating back to 4000 B.C. It has been used for culinary purposes, folk medicines and even for embalming mummies.
Spice Zen’s dry Fenugreek leaf is a certified organic, premium quality herb from India. The leaves have a mildly pungent, musky but sweet aroma, similar to vanilla or maple syrup with a slightly bitter, savoury, umami and nutty flavour.
Use it to flavour or season bread, curries (chicken, lamb, mutton and other gamy meats), root vegetable curries or stir fry like potatoes, omelettes, salads, lentils, sauces or in teas. It is a key secret ingredient in Indian cuisine.
Fenugreek leaves are known to have vitamins, flavonoids, minerals and fibres. It is used in Ayurveda and other traditional medicines for its anti-inflammatory, balancing cholesterol, blood sugar, digestive and lactation inducing properties.
Use only a small amount in the cooking and crumble or crush the dried leaves before use. Include it towards the end of the cooking as it can add bitter flavour if cooked for a long time.
Certified Organic Ingredient: Dried Fenugreek Leaf.
