Brassica nigra
Tiny but mighty — Kerala's black mustard seeds pop and crackle in hot oil to release a nutty, sharp aroma that is the very first step in almost every traditional Kerala dish.
Kaduku is non-negotiable in Kerala cooking. These small, round black mustard seeds from Palakkad's fertile plains are harvested when the pods turn golden and dried naturally. When dropped into hot coconut oil they burst open releasing volatile oils that form the aromatic base of curries, chutneys, pickles, and rice dishes. Our seeds are cleaned, sorted, and packed without any additives or fumigation.
