Nigella Black Seeds (100G)

Nigella seeds — known as kalonji in Urdu and Hindi — are small, jet-black seeds with a peppery, slightly bitter, onion-like flavour and a satisfying crunch that makes them one of the most distinctive and useful spices in South Asian cooking. These TRS kalonji nigella seeds come in a generous 100g pack: the ideal amount to keep on hand for naan breads, tempering dals, seasoning vegetables, and making pickles. What Are Kalonji Nigella Seeds? Nigella seeds (Nigella sativa) are the tiny black seeds of the flowering nigella plant, native to South and Southwest Asia. Despite sometimes being called “black onion seeds” or “black cumin,” they are neither onion seeds nor cumin — they are entirely their own ingredient with a unique flavour profile: peppery, slightly bitter, with herby and onion-like undertones. According to documented culinary sources, nigella seeds have been used in South Asian, Middle Eastern, and North African cooking for centuries. TRS (The Real Spice Company) is a well-established South Asian spice brand sold across European specialist grocery retailers. Their kalonji nigella seeds are supplied as whole, cleaned seeds — a pure single-ingredient spice in a 100g pack, providing excellent value for a seed used regularly in cooking. Why Choose TRS Kalonji Nigella Seeds Kalonji is a spice that rewards keeping in good supply — it is used regularly across Indian and Bangladeshi cooking, and the 100g pack size reflects this. TRS provides consistent quality across their spice range, and their nigella seeds are dried and sealed to maintain the seeds’ characteristic peppery aroma. Toasting them briefly in a dry pan or frying them in hot oil before using deepens their flavour significantly.
