Black Onion Seeds (Kalonji)

Black Onion Seeds are a tiny teardrop shaped seed from a small herb plant. It gives off an onion flavor to any dish. It is mainly used in Indian dishes but it is also known to be used for medical reasons as well.

Some of the dishes that black onion seed is used for are:

• Breads
• Vegetables
• Pickling
• Salads
• Curries
• Soups
• Stews
• Chilies
• Chicken Dishes

To bring out the flavor in black onion seeds, toast them first before using them. It helps bring out the flavor more in the dish you are preparing. You can use black onion seeds in almost any dish you want to have an onion flavor. Just make sure not to add too much black onion seeds to the dish or you’re going to get more flavor than you want.
