About Bhang Ki Chutney (Hemp Seeds Chutney)
Bhang Ki Chutney (Hemp Seeds Chutney) is a simple pahadi accompaniment popular in Uttarakhand households. On our trip to Almora, I bought hemp seeds from the local grocery store. Unlike the leaves of the bhang plant, the seeds are non-psychoactive, and this chutney is safe for everyone, including children. Serve this bhang seeds chutney with everyday Indian-style meals, or smear it on a ragi roti (finger millet roti, made) for a snack or light lunch. You can also serve this chutney with your favorite snacks, just like you would serve green chutney.
What Are Bhang Seeds
The hemp or bhang seeds come from bhang (hemp, cannabis, marijuana plant). They don’t have any psychoactive properties, unlike the bhang leaves. Therefore, they are safe for adults and kids to eat. Bhang seeds are considered very nutritious and can be used in many recipes. They can also be used to make hemp oil or hemp milk, a great substitute for milk for vegans. Bhang ke seeds can be toasted and used as a topping for pancakes, salads, bread, waffles, etc. Check out the health benefits and some side effects of hemp seeds here. Hemp seeds are available at large grocery stores these days. You can also check online grocery portals to buy these seeds. Adjust the green chilies depending on how spicy the chutney is.
For The Tempering
The chutney is tempered with 2 simple ingredients – ghee and dry red chilies.
