Ecoidées Organic Fair Trade Basil Seeds, 190 g

What are Ecoidées Organic Fair-Trade Basil Seeds used for?

Basil seeds (Ocimum basilicum) are consumed throughout Asia in much the same way as chia seeds, with which they share many benefits while being unique in terms of texture and nutritional profile.

Depending on the country, people consume them in different ways. In India, they are also called Sabja and are an ingredient in a dessert called Falooda.
Very popular in Thailand, they’re used in cold beverages, where they add a much-loved gel-like texture.
In Mauritius, they are called “Toucmaria” and are used to make a traditional drink called “Alooda.”

Basil seeds form the basis of many traditional recipes and serve as a source of inspiration for healthy and creative cooking.

Basil seeds are known across cultures and regions and are sourced here from small-scale farmers working in independent cooperatives. Ethnoscience Ecoidées supports this initiative to ensure that every independent farmer receives a fair income for themselves and their family.
