Fenugreek is a plant that is widely used in cooking and herbal medicine. The plant's leaves and seeds are used as a herb and spice and have a slightly bitter, nutty flavour that is similar to celery or maple syrup.
The taste of fenugreek leaves is somewhat milder than that of the seeds, with a slightly sweet and aromatic flavour. They are often used as a leafy vegetable in Indian, Middle Eastern, and North African cuisine, and are commonly added to soups, stews, and curries.
