Black Mustard Seeds
Black mustard seeds are native to southern Europe and are widely cultivated in India, Canada, and other countries. They have been used for thousands of years in traditional medicine for their anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.
In addition, they are a rich source of essential minerals such as calcium, iron, and magnesium. Black mustard seeds are commonly used in Indian cuisine for pickling, curries, and spice blends. They add a pungent and slightly bitter flavour to dishes.
SpiceNest sources its oil seeds directly from local farmers to ensure high quality and freshness. The company is committed to providing customers with authentic and flavourful spices and herbs from around the world.
