Frequently Asked Questions
What are halim seeds and what are they used for?
Halim, also called aliv or garden cress seed, is a small reddish-brown seed used traditionally across India, most often for its iron content. It is commonly eaten as halim ladoo or soaked in milk or water. It is a food, not a medicine, so if you are treating a specific condition, please speak to your doctor.
Do I need to soak them?
Yes, in most preparations. Soak a teaspoon in water or milk for around 15 to 20 minutes until the seeds develop a soft gel coat, similar to sabja. They can also be dry roasted and used in ladoos, which is the traditional format.
How much should I have a day?
Half to one teaspoon soaked is a typical serving. Traditional practice treats halim as warming and it is usually taken in small quantities. If you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding, speak to your doctor before adding it, since it has a long history of specific traditional use in those contexts and we are not able to advise on your situation.
The seeds vary in colour between packs.
Halim ranges from light reddish brown to deeper brown depending on harvest and region. We do not sort for appearance, so packs will not look identical.
How should I store them?
Airtight, cool and dry. Dry seeds keep well for a long period. Once soaked, use within a day and keep refrigerated.
