Description
Kalonji — the tiny black seed with a sharp, oniony bite — is the flavor on top of every naan you have ever torn off at a restaurant. Now imagine having it ground and ready for everything else.
Pardesi ground kalonji powder delivers the pungent, slightly bitter, oregano-meets-onion flavor of Nigella sativa in a ready-to-use form. Whole kalonji seeds are iconic as a naan topping, but the ground powder unlocks its use in marinades, spice rubs, dressings, and curry bases where whole seeds would be lost.
Stir into bread dough for earthy depth. Blend into spice rubs for grilled meats. Add to vegetable curries and dal. Mix into salad dressings for a peppery kick. Kalonji has been a staple in South Asian, Middle Eastern, and North African kitchens for centuries.
Halal certified. GMP & ISO-certified facility. 170g dual-cap jar.
