This image shows basil seeds (also known as sabja or tukmaria seeds) spilled from a glass jar onto a wooden surface. A wooden spoon nearby contains basil seeds that have been soaked in water, causing them to swell and develop a translucent, gel-like coating. Fresh green leaves in the background add a natural and healthy touch to the scene.
Basil seeds are small black seeds that resemble chia seeds. When soaked in water, they swell up and become gelatinous. They are commonly used in summer drinks like falooda, lemonade, and lassi due to their cooling properties. Basil seeds are also known for their health benefits, including aiding digestion, promoting weight loss, and helping to regulate blood sugar.
