Kala jeera or kalonji seeds are often confused with black sesame seeds because of their similar appearance, but one whiff will set even a layman straight.
Onion seeds or nigella seeds are often used to flavour bread products in the west, while in india, particularly in Bengal, it is popular both as a standalone spice and also as a part of paanch phoron.
This is as compatible with vegetarian dishes as with fish preparations. Temper the blandest vegetable with a combination of onion seeds and garlic, and marvel at the difference.
A blend of five aromatic seeds that are each an important component of any spice box.
Paach phoron, literally five spice, contains fenugreek, black mustard, nigella, cumin and fennel seeds, in the same quantities each. Each of these aromatics is strong enough to hold its own, yet eager to work with others. This gives this blend an interesting piquancy that is almost instantly identifiable.
A must for Bengali and Bangladeshi cuisine, this is quite popular in north India as well.
While this can easily be made at home, keep a packet of our Five Spice Mix handy if you want the surety of premium quality and perfect proportion.
