Fenugreek can be easily grown to give a summer long source of aromatic tasty greens. This is an exotic eastern herb/vegetable which is pretty fool proof to grow in the UK. It has a fresh herby flavour with a touch of bitterness and is full of iron, vitamins, antioxidants and fibre. Basically really good for you whilst being tasty as well! Currently it is only available in local Asian grocers but, given its health benefits, quite likely to become a new 'Superfood' on our supermarket shelves some time soon.
The Global Fenugreek Seed Extract Market was valued at USD 7.05 million in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 17 million by the year 2028, at a CAGR of 13.4%
