Ordering Information

Fenugreek
Fenugreek is native to an area extending from Iran to northern India, but is now widely cultivated elsewhere, including China, North and East Africa, Ukraine and Greece. Its taste is somewhat bitter and peculiar, not unlike celery. Egyptians use fenugreek seeds for medicinal purposes or roasted the seeds to use as coffee. They also ate sprouted seed and fresh leaves. People in India use the leaves as a vegetable and the seed as a spice in curry. Derivatives are used as flavoring for imitation maple syrup, vanilla compositions, rum and butterscotch.
