Ingredients: Black Mustard Seeds (100%).
Black mustard seeds (also known as Rai in Hindi - काली सरसों के बीज) are tiny, round, and dark brown to black in colour - an essential spice in Indian cuisine. They offer a zingy, sharp, and slightly bitter taste, adding depth of flavour and a hint of heat to dishes. When toasted or fried, they mellow, sweeten, and take on a nutty profile.
These seeds are key ingredients in popular Indian dishes like Aloo Gobi, a vegetarian dish with potatoes and cauliflower, Baingan Bharta, an eggplant dish, and Chana Masala, a chickpea curry. They're also used in Thoran, a South Indian vegetable dish flavoured with coconut, turmeric, and curry leaves.
🍽️ How to use:
Black mustard seeds are often used for tempering dishes. Heat oil until hot, then add the seeds. They'll splutter and release their intense, slightly nutty aroma. This "tadka" (tempering) technique infuses the oil with with flavour to be distributed throughout the dish.
