How Black Seed Honey Is Made
- Planting Black Seed
- Farmers sow Nigella sativa seeds, which grow into flowering plants that attract honeybees.
- Nectar Formation
- When the flowers bloom, they produce a sweet nectar, rich in aroma, which serves as food for bees.
- Collection by Bees
- Bees drink the nectar and carry it back to their hives.
- Storage in Honeycombs
- Nectar is stored in honeycomb cells and initially contains 60–80% water.
- Enzyme Action
- Bees mix the nectar with the enzyme invertase, breaking down sucrose into glucose and fructose. This natural fermentation transforms the nectar into honey.
- Evaporation of Water
- Bees fan their wings to reduce water content to 17–20%, thickening the nectar.
- Transformation into Honey
- Enzymes and natural fermentation finalize the process, producing pure Black Seed Honey.
- Harvesting by Beekeepers
- Beekeepers collect, filter, and bottle the honey.
- Why It’s Called Black Seed Honey
- The honey is primarily made from Nigella sativa flowers. After flowering, the plant produces black seeds (karunjeeragam) commonly used in cooking.
