Part Used: Whole dried seeds of Trigonella foenum-graecum
Description: Fenugreek Seed Whole consists of the mature seeds of Trigonella foenum-graecum, an annual herb native to the Mediterranean region and widely cultivated in South Asia and temperate climates. The plant develops small, hard, golden-brown seeds that are harvested at full maturity for consistent size, colour, and aroma.
After harvesting, the seeds are carefully cleaned to remove dust, broken fragments, and field debris. They are then dried using controlled low-temperature air-drying methods to reduce moisture while preserving their natural colour, aroma, and seed integrity.
The dried seeds retain their characteristic small, hard, and slightly angular shape with a smooth surface. Their intact form provides uniformity and visual appeal, making them suitable for applications where whole seed material is preferred, with ease of handling, blending, and storage.
Uses: Fenugreek Seed Whole is used in culinary seasoning, spice mixes, traditional recipes, and herbal beverage formulations. It is also suitable for cosmetic formulations, botanical craft projects, educational herb kits, and creative applications where whole seeds are valued for texture, aroma, and natural botanical appearance.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
