What is blue fenugreek?
Blue fenugreek belongs to the legume (Fabaceae) family and is especially popular in German-speaking countries. The plant grows in regions such as the Caucasus, the Mediterranean, and Central Europe and prefers calcareous soils in a mountainous climate.
Ground vs. cut blue fenugreek
The flowering period runs from June through August. For this product, leaves and flowers are harvested, then dried and cut. This cut variant differs from powdered blue fenugreek by its coarser texture and a more gradual release of aroma, which makes it particularly suitable for bread and other baking applications.
Uses in bread and the kitchen
Blue fenugreek is versatile in use and particularly popular in South Tyrolean cuisine. Classic recipes such as Schüttelbrot or rye bread get their distinctive flavor from this bread spice. The aroma also works well in bread dough made with rye flour.
Besides bread, blue fenugreek is suitable for dishes such as potato preparations, vegetable stews, or sauces. The herb is also often used in dips, herbed quark, or fresh cheese and pairs well with coriander, fennel, or a little pepper. It is moreover an important ingredient of the Swiss cheese Schabziger, from which it also gets its best-known German name 'Schabzigerklee'.
Recommended dosage: 4 to 7 g per kilogram of flour
