Heray Fennel Seeds grow on the pristine land of Ghor, Afghanistan. The greenish yellow seeds feature a pleasant aroma of sweet and mint. Fennel tastes mild anise and sweetened, and is used in soups, sauces, fish dishes, lamb, breads, cakes, and more recipes. The local methods of hand-harvesting and sun-drying give these seeds a robust in flavor and smell.
Heray Spice is a social enterprise with a mission to help rural farmers by bringing their spices to international markets and paying them with fair-trade principles.

I have received compliments on fennel spiced: beans, lentils, soups, stews, stir-fries, and teas. And I'm planning to try it on or in baked goods, barbecue sauce, bulgurs, chilis, couscous, ice cream, and more plant-based dishes for trying to avoid chronic diseases. Thank you so much again Heray Spice!
