These Toasted Tamari Seeds are one of the simplest snack ideas. 

They only have 4 ingredients, but they really pack a nutritional punch!

You can eat by the handful as an easy snack or sprinkle on your favourite salads and soups to up the flavour and nutrition. 

Nutritional highlights:

Rich in plant-based protein – with over 4g of protein per small handful.

High in essential minerals – naturally rich in zinc, magnesium and iron.

Source of healthy fats –unsaturated fats that support heart health and help with the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.

Naturally rich in fibre – supporting digestion and gut health, while also keeping you full.

Here are some simple ways to use tamari roasted seeds:

  • Sprinkle over soups: they add a savoury crunch and an extra nutrient boost.
  • Top salads: great with most salads, grain bowls or slaws for extra texture and flavour.
  • Finish roasted veg: scatter over traybakes or roasted veg just before serving.
  • Mix into stir-fries: toss through at the end for an umami boost.
  • Top hummus or dips: a simple way to elevate them.
  • Add to rice or quinoa bowls: works well with most rice bowl.
  • Snack straight from the jar – an easy, satisfying savoury snack

Storage and Shelf Life

These toasted tamari seeds store well in the jar. They will last for a couple of weeks. 

They can also be frozen. Make sure to cool completely first.

Recipe Tips

The recipe is very customisable – swap the seeds for nuts or change which seeds you use. 

If preferred, you can also use soy sauce or coconut aminos rather than tamari.

Ingredients
 

Instructions
 

  • Add all the ingredients to a small non-stick frying pan on a medium heat. Keep stirring until the seeds soak up the tamari and they become light brown and crispy. This should only take about 5 minutes. If your pan is non-stick you may need a tsp or two of olive oil.
  • Once ready, remove from the heat and leave to cool in the pan.
  • Store in an airtight container or jar.

Notes

  • You can vary the seeds you use, just keep the quantities similar.
  • If preferred, you can use soy sauce or coconut aminos instead of tamari.
