Fenugreek

Another superfood microgreen growing at our UrbanPonics farm is fenugreek leaves. It has a slightly bitter and earthy taste and surprisingly a subtle sweet note in the end.

They are a treasure of nutrients like Vitamin K, Calcium, folate, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Riboflavin, pyridoxine and antioxidants like trigonelline and diogenin.

Fenugreek microgreens are acclaimed worldwide for the cure of arthritis. If they are consumed twice daily, it flushes out all the waste from the body and also cleanses the intestines. They are present in dishes all over the world, from curries to salads (when in their microgreen form) to pita breads to salads.

The seeds are called ‘methi’ locally. While, the leaves are called ‘methi bhaaji’.
