Fennel Seeds

Everyday

Fennel seeds are aromatic spice seeds harvested from the flowering fennel plant, characterized by their distinctive licorice-like flavor and pale green to brown coloring. These small, curved seeds are rich in antioxidants and traditionally valued for their digestive properties, particularly in Indian and Mediterranean cuisines. Common in both sweet and savory dishes, fennel seeds can be used whole or ground, offering concentrated flavor while requiring minimal amounts in recipes.
