Leaving aside the quite extraordinary health benefits of Fenugreek, this Spice, originally from the Mediterranean and in use for over 4000 years, will add an almost secret flavour dimension to your favourite recipe, especially recipes that are a little bit zippy by design.

A Spice very much worth adding to your flavour armoury. You will find dried Fenugreek, if used carefully, will add a Maple Syrup aroma, with just a slight, burnt sugar sharpness to your dish.

A simple pairing for Fenugreek is the traditional Spice Blend of Garam Masala, typically bringing in all the flavours of Cumin, Coriander, Cardamon, Nutmeg and Fennel.

Interestingly we tried this combination of Fenugreek and Garam Masala with our version of a Butter Vegetable Curry. Terrific. Lovely warm curry flavours and quick and easy. The recipe soon.
