Knead a spoonful into ka'ak or date biscuit dough, or scatter the seeds over sweet bread before baking. Simmer a pinch in sweetened milk for a fragrant pudding, and add a few seeds to the syrup for cakes and pastries. For a quick cup, steep a spoonful in hot water for a few minutes, strain and sweeten to taste.

Start with a teaspoon or two per batch of ka'ak or biscuits and add more next time for a stronger note.
