Bulk density of ground fenugreek seed is approx. 0.67 g/ml (3.3 g per tsp).
Instead of Ground fenugreek
Nothing truly mimics the distinctive maple-like aroma paired with the lingering bitter back-note of fenugreek seed.
Fenugreek seedsGrind whole seeds finely in a spice grinder; use equal weight (1:1). Ensure it cooks through gently, as undercooked or burnt ground seeds become intensely bitter.
Dried fenugreek leavesCrush dried leaves between your palms and add towards the end; use 50% of the weight. Gives the unmistakable maple-herb aroma without the sharp bitterness of the seeds.
Yellow mustard seedsGrind finely; use 50% of the weight. Adds an earthy, sharp bite, though it lacks the distinctive sweet-curry smell.
