Description

Add refreshing texture and natural goodness to your favorite drinks and desserts with Greenfields Basil Seeds (Tukmaria / Sabja). Sourced from the sweet basil plant (Ocimum basilicum), these small black seeds are a staple across Indian, Middle Eastern, and Southeast Asian culinary traditions.

When immersed in liquid, basil seeds quickly develop a soft, jelly-like outer coating with a delicate crunch in the center. Highly regarded for their natural cooling properties, they are an essential addition to summer drinks, refreshing coolers, and wholesome breakfast bowls.

Key Culinary Uses & Preparation Ideas:

• Authentic Falooda & Milk Drinks: The classic signature base for royal Falooda, rose milk, almond badam milk, and spiced milkshakes.

• Lemonades & Refreshing Coolers: Add soaked seeds to iced nimbu pani, lemonade, mint coolers, or fruit cordials for texture and hydration.

• Smoothies & Juices: Stir into fresh fruit juices, green smoothies, or coconut water.

• Puddings & Breakfast Bowls: Use as a lighter, fiber-rich alternative to chia seeds in yogurt bowls, overnight oats, fruit salads, and chia-style puddings.

How to Use:

1. Place 1–2 teaspoons of basil seeds into a bowl.

2. Add about 1 cup of warm or cold water.
