This has nothing to do with the British cooking queen, Nigella Lawson, but with the spice seed, nigella (sometimes called black cumin, but unrelated to cumin). I've tried it, I like it (with the dash of vanilla), so I'm posting it here. Ingredients:
1 cup water (almost boiling) |
1 tablespoon nigella seeds |
milk (optional) or cream (optional) |
honey (optional) |
1 dash vanilla extract (optional) |
Directions:
1. Crush the nigella in a mortar and pestle; doesn't have to be too fine, you just want to release the essential oils. 2. Place them in a teaball, and the teaball in your cup. 3. Pour hot water over and allow to steep 8 to 10 minutes. 4. Remove teaball and discard contents. 5. Flavor with milk, cream, honey or vanilla as desired. |
