Trigonella foenum-graecum is an annual herb in the pea family that has a unique flavor, which is sweet and slightly bitter. Fenugreek seeds have a notable aroma, reminiscent of maple. They are commonly used as a spice in Egyptian, Indian, and Middle Eastern foods. Native to the Mediterranean, India, and China, fenugreek is an annual herb with light yellow flowers and three lobed, clover-like leaves, typical of the pea or Fabaceae family.
For thousands of years, fenugreek has been used for culinary and wellness purposes within traditional healing practices such as Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and in European folk herbalism. Fenugreek seeds were typically utilized in Ayurveda as well as traditional European herbalism to support digestion, support lactation in nursing mothers, and in topical applications. In TCM, fenugreek has been administered for hundreds of years and is now official in the Chinese pharmacopeia. Considered bitter in taste and heating in nature, fenugreek seeds are used to dispel dampness and cold and to warm the kidneys.
