Organic Fenugreek sprouting seeds

🌱 Fenugreek is one of our favourite seeds, and one of the easiest to sprout! It will pleasantly flavour your dishes with its spicy taste reminiscent of cumin or curry... but not only that!

> Fun fact: when you eat it, your sweat takes on a pleasant curry smell a few hours later.

Soaking: 10 hours

Germination: Our organic fenugreek seeds can be eaten between 2 and 4 days after being set to sprout.

It is very easy to grow in theEasygreen Light or in theEasygreen Sol.

🌱 Below is a video showing you behind the scenes at our supplier Bavicchi:

🌱 As well as a video of an interview we had the pleasure of filming with Dario Bavicchi:

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) is a legume from the Fabaceae family - and frankly, it has been one of my favourites since the early days of Biovie.

Fenugreek: contraindications and precautions for use

Fenugreek is generally well tolerated when eaten in food quantities. A few precautions are nevertheless needed - and it is important to know them before starting regular consumption:

  • Pregnancy: large quantities can stimulate uterine contractions. To be consumed in moderation and after medical advice.
  • Legume allergy: fenugreek belongs to the Fabaceae family. In case of allergy to peanuts, chickpeas or peas, consult before consuming.
  • Medically treated diabetes: if you are on antidiabetic treatment, ask your doctor for advice before any regular consumption.
  • Drug interactions: may potentiate certain anticoagulants (coumarin content). Tell your doctor if you are on treatment.
  • Body odour: sweat can take on a pleasant curry smell - due to sotolone, a natural aromatic molecule in fenugreek. A normal, temporary phenomenon.

If in doubt, the advice of a health professional is recommended before any regular consumption.

Frequently asked questions about fenugreek seeds

How to eat sprouted fenugreek seeds?

Sprouted fenugreek seeds are eaten raw, straight after rinsing. They fit easily into salads, smoothies, cold soups, open sandwiches or sprinkled over your dishes. Their slightly spicy flavour, reminiscent of curry, brings character to all preparations.

Can you eat fenugreek seeds raw, without sprouting them?

Yes, fenugreek seeds can be eaten soaked (after 10 hours in water) without being fully sprouted. We do however recommend waiting a minimum of 2 days of germination.

How much fenugreek per day is recommended?

In everyday eating, a few grams of sprouted seeds per day (one to two tablespoons) is a reasonable amount. It is advisable to start gradually.

Is fenugreek dangerous? What are its side effects?

Eaten in food quantities, fenugreek is well tolerated by most adults. Excessive consumption can cause discomfort (flatulence, loose stools). People on antidiabetic treatment should ask their doctor for advice. Pregnancy requires particular caution (see the precautions section above). People allergic to legumes should avoid fenugreek.

Why do fenugreek seeds smell of curry?

This characteristic smell is due to sotolone, an aromatic molecule naturally present in fenugreek. In tiny amounts, it evokes maple and curry. After consumption, it can be found in sweat and urine - this is a normal, harmless and temporary phenomenon, often described as a fun anecdote by regular consumers.
