Wattle seed is the edible seed of various Acacia species native to Australia. These seeds have been a staple food for Indigenous Australians for thousands of years. Wattle seeds are known for their nutty flavor and versatility in cooking. They can be ground into flour, roasted, or used whole in a variety of dishes. Rich in protein, fiber, and essential minerals, wattle seeds are a nutritious addition to both traditional and contemporary cuisines. They are often used in baking, as a coffee substitute, or to add a unique flavor to sauces and marinades. The seeds are typically harvested from mature pods and require processing to remove any toxins before consumption.
