About Green fennel seeds

Green fennel seeds, derived from the fennel plant (Foeniculum vulgare), are quintessential in Mediterranean, Indian, and Middle Eastern cuisines, prized for their sweet, licorice-like flavor. These tiny seeds are a powerhouse of nutrients, including dietary fiber, antioxidants, and essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium. They're rich in anethole, a compound linked to digestive support and anti-inflammatory properties. Green fennel seeds are often used in cooking, herbal teas, and as a natural breath freshener. Their subtle sweetness enhances curries, baked goods, and spice blends. While they're packed with health benefits, including aiding digestion, promoting heart health, and improving immunity, they should be consumed in moderation due to their concentrated oils. These seeds strike a balance between culinary versatility and functional nutrition, making them a valuable addition to a balanced diet.
