Kalonji or Blackseed
|
Nigella sativa
Ranunculaceae
No kitchen garden can afford to be without Nigella.
Fresh or dry roasted seeds add so much pungency to cooked pulses, vegetables or curries.
Nigella seeds are easy to strike but transplant poorly, so it is best to sow where you want to grow and thin out a little.
Blackseed does have a remarkable effect on flatulence but can cause a healthy sweat.
