Basil Seeds, also known as Sabja Seeds, Tukh Malanga, or Ocimum basilicum seeds, are tiny black seeds used for centuries in herbal medicine and Southeast Asian culinary traditions. Similar in appearance to chia seeds, they swell into a jelly-like texture when soaked—making them a fun and functional superfood.
