Green Fennel Seed

Green Fennel Seed — Saunf | 200 g & 20 lb

Green Fennel Seeds (saunf) are the fresh, vibrant variety of fennel seed — sweeter, more aromatic, and brighter in colour than the pale yellow fennel seeds commonly found in grocery stores. With a sweet, anise-like flavour and a cooling finish, they are a staple in South Asian cooking and a classic after-meal mouth freshener. Available in retail and bulk sizes.

Culinary Uses:

• Mukhwas — the classic Indian after-meal mouth freshener, plain or sugar-coated
• Spice blends — panch phoron, garam masala, and saunf-based masalas
• Chai and spiced herbal teas
• Curries, sabzi, and vegetable dishes — used whole in tempering or ground into masala
• Pickles and achaar
• Cookies, breads, and sweet baked goods — especially in Gujarati and North Indian sweets
• Saunf sherbet — a cooling fennel seed drink

Flavour Profile: Sweet, aromatic, and anise-like with a cool, refreshing finish. Milder and sweeter than regular fennel seed — the green colour indicates freshness and higher volatile oil content for a more fragrant result.

Available Sizes:

• 200 g — $2.99
• 20 lb — $84.99

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container away from direct sunlight. Keeps well for up to 12 months.
