About this product

TKM Foods – Kalonji Seeds – Bold Peppery Seeds with a distinctive flavour 

Kalonji seeds are tiny black seeds derived from the Nigella sativa plant. Though sometimes mistaken for black sesame or cumin, they have a unique flavor and aroma that set them apart. With a mildly peppery, nutty taste, they are used in a variety of global cuisines, particularly in Indian, Middle Eastern, and North African dishes.

Kalonji adds depth, texture, and a subtle bite, making it a favorite for seasoning breads, vegetable dishes, and spice blends.

Common Uses:

Kalonji seeds are typically used whole (not ground) to add both texture and flavor. They are often toasted or fried briefly to release their aromatic oils.

  • Breads and Baked Goods: Sprinkled on naan, flatbreads, bagels, and crackers before baking
  • Pickles: A key ingredient in Indian pickling spice blends (achar masala)
  • Spice Mixes: Used Bengali five-spice mix
  • Vegetable Dishes: Added to sautéed or roasted potatoes, eggplant, okra, or lentils
  • Rice and Grains: Toasted and stirred into pilafs, couscous, or bulgur wheat
  • Savory Snacks: Mixed into doughs or sprinkled on savory biscuits and pastries
  • Toast lightly in oil or dry-roast before adding to dishes to unlock a deeper flavor
  • Sprinkle over salads or yogurt dips for added texture and a pop of flavor
  • Add to doughs for naan, parathas, or crackers for an aromatic finish
  • Stir into cooked lentils or vegetables just before serving for a hint of spice and crunch
  • Garnish hummus or labneh with kalonji and olive oil for Middle Eastern flair

Storage Tips:

  • Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place
  • Avoid moisture and direct sunlight to preserve flavor

Kalonji seeds are a flavorful and versatile spice that add a hint of earthiness and visual appeal to a wide range of dishes. Whether used in baking, pickling, or cooking, they bring a distinctive touch of tradition and aroma to your kitchen.
