Fenugreek seeds, also known as methi or kasuri methi, are long, hard, and brownish-yellow, although the color can vary. The seeds are firm, yellowish-brown, and angular. Fenugreek seeds are commonly used in the preparation of pickles, curry powder, pastes, and are frequently encountered in the cuisine of the Indian subcontinent. The young leaves and sprouts of fenugreek are eaten fresh, and the green or dried leaves are used to flavor other dishes. Fenugreek seeds are botanically known as Trigonella foenum-graecum and belong to the family Fabaceae. They are small, hard, yellowish-brown seeds that are smooth and oblong in shape. Fenugreek seeds are native to southeastern Europe and West Asia but are cultivated in India. Fenugreek seeds are used in tempering in some Indian cuisines and can be ground into a fine powder for making curry masala. They are also used in making pickles and are commonly added to sambar masala to enhance flavor.

Fenugreek seeds have been used medicinally much earlier than as a flavoring condiment. They are rich in vitamin C and have a high protein content. Fenugreek seeds help in reducing cholesterol by preventing the stiffening of arteries and also aid in weight loss. They function both as a preventive medicine for diabetes and help control sugar levels.

Practitioners of Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine have used and documented methi seeds for their many medicinal uses.
