CARMEL ORGANICS Fenugreek/Methi Seeds(Powder, 225 Grams) | Jaivik Bharat Certified

The outer packaging had a *very* strong mothball odor, but it didn’t permeate through the product packaging to the product itself. I purchased this to make a hair tonic, which seems to be going well. When added to water, but not properly diluted, this can harden like egg whites, so proceed with caution when using on hair.

To make thee best brow lamination pomade:

– Start with clean, oil free brows, face, and hands

– Brush your brows upward with a clean spoolie.

– Take a small amount of powder in the palm of your hand

– Dampen a your fingertip or a clean Q-tip with a little water and dab into fenugreek powder, picking up a small amount. The powder should appear damp on the Q-tip/finger.

– Press onto brow in an upward motion. You’ll know you’ve got the moisture/product balance when you see the product easily pasting brows in place immediately upon application; brushing over and over is not required or recommended. Using a spoolie for this step will not achieve the laminated look as the spoolie tends to pull brow hairs away from the skin and you need the brows to adhere to the skin for this to be effective. Work from inner to outer corners. Additional pressing with finger tips may be helpful.

You may need to practice a few times, but I assure you, you can achieve pushed up, flake-free, last-all-day laminated brows with this product. The trick is to not disturb fenugreek paste once it has dried, which will happen fairly quickly, as less water is better.

P.S. Yes, you will need to get used to the smell of fenugreek, but the upside is that your brows are being conditioned with this product and alternative is to either potentially damage them with actual brow lamination or to keep wasting money on products that don’t give you anywhere near the desired effect! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Very good Product with nice flavor. Fine powder with good taste, more than what I have expected. We can also seal the pouch after use & it is of airtight seal. Great packing. You can go for it.

This is my first time with straight fenugreek. I’m sure I’ve had it in dishes before but I’ve never used it in my own cooking before, mainly because it’s not an ingredient I can find easily.

Tasting it alone, it has a bit of a grassy, tannic, bitter flavor. Sounds harsh but I can see why it’s put into curry type dishes. You need a little bit of that earthy, bitterness when you have such deep flavors like a curry.

Honestly, I don’t know from good fenugreek and bad fenugreek yet but it won’t stop me from exploring how to use this herb in different types of recipes.

I understand there are some health benefits as well but I’ll have to explore that too.
