I have a fair number of these. I know I can use them in cooking, but don't know how! Do I use them whole, or crushed? Do I remove the outer bit? I chewed on one today and found it very pleasant, with a hint of lemon. In India they are put on the table in restaurants and the customers chew them after the meal. I suppose they are meant to be breath fresheners. In Indian restaurants in Europe too. It's Fennel seeds not Coriander that you chew as a digestive and mouth freshener after a meal in India/Indian Restaurants and normally some are sugar coated. You can by them in any good Indian grocers. (says he who shops in Southall for spices etc) Ahh! I didn't try them so I only accepted what I was told Thanks, Bob. Apologies to Kathy! You get a mix, in Dutch Indian restaurants, which includes coriander and cumin seeds. Cumin seeds are also used in Leidse Kaas. Glory be! I don't eat spicy stuff so I don't know about such all that |
