Onion Seeds: Overview
Onion seeds, also known as black onion seeds or kalonji in some regions, come from the plant Allium cepa, a member of the Amaryllidaceae family. These tiny, angular black seeds are harvested from the mature seed pods of flowering onion plants. Although distinct from Nigella sativa (often also called black seed or kalonji), true onion seeds are specifically used for cultivating onion crops, not for medicinal or culinary purposes. They are primarily planted in nurseries or fields to grow bulb onions, which are one of the world’s most widely used vegetables. Onion seeds require well-drained soil and ample sunlight to thrive. While not commonly used in cooking or health supplements, they play a critical role in agriculture. It’s important to note the difference between onion seeds (Allium cepa) and black cumin/Nigella seeds (Nigella sativa), which are used in traditional medicine and cooking.
