Seed Spices
About This Group
Seed spices are edible seeds used primarily for their spice-like flavoring role rather than as a snack or baking ingredient — mustard seed and similar herb-and-spice seeds are grouped separately.
Edible seeds with a primary spice-like culinary function, kept separate from seeds classified as herbs and spices, such as mustard seed.
