Fenugreek

Fenugreek is an aromatic spice and herb long used in Indian, Middle Eastern, and North African cooking. Its seeds have a distinctive earthy, slightly bitter flavor with a hint of maple-like sweetness, and they’re often used in curry blends, pickles, breads, and spice pastes. Nutritionally, Fenugreek is unusually rich in 24.6 and also provides a meaningful amount of 23 for a plant spice. It’s also a notable source of minerals such as iron and copper. Its high fiber and mineral content make it a nutritious seasoning in small amounts, especially when used to add flavor without needing much salt or fat.
