Also known as black cumin, Nigella is considered a holy ingredient in most of North Africa and the Middle East. It's the superfood you've probably never heard of Nigella contains 15 amino acids, essential fatty acids like linoleic acid, vitamins A and C, and minerals such as calcium, protein, potassium, and iron. It’s also an antioxidant. It was so prized that Ancient Egyptians even placed the 'black seed' oil in the tombs of their kings.
We love its nutty and onion aromas on flatbreads, vegetable spreads, as a garnish on salads, and in our morning Moroccan porridge Hsoua.
