Instructions: Great ingredient. Whole seeds can keep their flavor for years, but once in liquid, they become soft and easy to chew, while retaining their individual integrty.

Makes a great gift! The proportions dont need to be precise.

Substitute ground seeds if you have to. Store in a cool dark place.

USE to flavor the water to cook vegetables like artichokes. Just dump some seeds generously into the boiling water. Add to vegetable soup purees - like carrot. Add to braised meats for roasts and stews, like Succulent Lamb Shanks (Sunset) see recipe.
