Mediterranean Fennel Seeds

Fennel seeds, derived from the fennel plant (Foeniculum vulgare), are aromatic, sweet, and slightly licorice-flavored seeds. They are commonly used as a spice in cooking and baking, particularly in Mediterranean, Indian, and Middle Eastern cuisines. Rich in antioxidants, fiber, and essential oils, fennel seeds have numerous health benefits, including aiding digestion, reducing bloating, and promoting hormonal balance. They are also known for their anti-inflammatory properties. Often chewed after meals to freshen the breath, fennel seeds are a versatile ingredient in both culinary and herbal practices.
