Black cumin, or Nigella sativa, also known as kalinji, is a special spice that has been used in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisines for centuries. These seeds are not only aromatic, but also versatile - they are often used as a substitute for black pepper, because unlike black pepper, black cumin does not irritate the stomach lining.


 TRS Nigella seeds are potent and concentrated, so they are added to food in very small amounts to bring out the flavor without being overly pungent. This product is especially suitable for those looking for an authentic oriental feel to their dishes.
