Fenugreek
Fenugreek emits a pungent, sweet earthy scent immediately reminiscent of curry. The seeds have a slightly bitter aftertaste but toasting them reduces the bitterness and increases the sweetness - in fact, roasted fenugreek seeds are used in the manufacture of artificial maple syrup. Whole seeds are very hard so are usually used crushed or ground.

Prompt service, all looks good. Website not totally easy to navigate.
I ordered easily and received everything remarkably quickly beautifully packaged. Perfect service.
Really fresh spices and good prices, especially like being able to buy only a small amount-no more bottles of dust in the spice cupboard! Letterbox size packages are fab and free postage too.
Excellent - Arrived really quickly. Great quality
This company is just perfect. Everything you need when you've never heard of a certain product or can't find it in the supermarket. In fact, now I have found the spicery the shelf products just won't do anyway. The choice of spices and the choice of how you want them is vast - whole, crushed, ground etc.... I placed an order between christmas and new year so expected a delay on delivery but my package arrived straight away. And what a package it was - it was like opening another christmas present because it was so beautifully done. Touches like that make all the difference to ones shoppping experience. I would absolutely reccommend using the spicery because as well as excelling in choice, delivery speed and packing they are really, really good value too. Just brilliant!
My order arrived incomplete. Received an email 3 days later with an apology and information on the order beeing fulfilled immediately
Fast delivery plus a little added extra on top of my order happy to order from the Spicery again!
Will continue to be a customer of the Spicery as I rate the quality of their product far superior to what I'd find in the supermarket.
Good fenugreek, not too bitter.
A difficult spice to find except in some up market grocers. And then the tiny bottles haven't been stored well and the spices are not fresh. With the spicery, you will find the freshest and most aromatic spices to give your dishes the right amount of oomph!
Service always excellent but I find the new layout a bit confusing and not as easy to find things. Took me some time to actually find the order section with all the other stuff coming up.
Had trouble sourcing this locally, thank you for your prompt service
