Mustard seeds, or rai, are tiny spice kernels packed with flavor and nutritional value. Organically cultivated mustard seeds are free from synthetic chemicals and rich in selenium, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids. These nutrients contribute to digestive health, heart function, and may offer anti-inflammatory benefits.
In Indian cooking, mustard seeds are commonly tempered in hot oil until they crackle and release a rich, nutty aroma—forming the base for dals, curries, pickles, and stir-fried vegetables. Their sharp, pungent flavor adds depth and authenticity to traditional dishes.
