Eight minutes to a clear halo
Drop sabja in water and it is ready before you have finished setting the table. Each seed swells into a translucent jelly sheath — you can watch it happen.
It is ready when every seed wears a clear halo. Never eat it dry; it swells fast and is uncomfortable if it does so on the way down.
Sabja is not chia
They get sold interchangeably and they are different plants doing different jobs.
Sabja is sweet basil seed, Ocimum basilicum, grown across India and Southeast Asia for centuries. Chia is Salvia hispanica, from Mexico and Guatemala.
The colour test settles it instantly: sabja is uniformly jet black. Chia is mottled — grey, brown, white and black speckled together. Anything sold as chia that is a single flat black is sabja.
Sabja also gels in eight minutes against chia's thirty.
What it carries
Around 1500mg of calcium per 100g — more than double chia's, and remarkable for a plant food. A tablespoon is roughly 180mg, comparable to half a glass of milk.
What it does not carry is omega-3. About 1g per 100g against chia's 18. If omega-3 is why you are buying a seed, this is not the one.
The cooling one
Ayurveda classes sabja as sheetal — cooling — and this is what Indian households actually use it for. Falooda in May is not a nutrition decision.
There is something real underneath: the mucilage holds a large volume of water and releases it slowly through the gut, which hydrates genuinely and is why it is commonly used for acidity and heartburn — the gel coats and buffers.
Using it
One to two teaspoons in a glass of water, eight to ten minutes. Lemon, or a spoon of gud, or rose syrup. Cold, in the afternoon, through summer.
Keeping it
Airtight and dark; twelve months. Fresh sabja smells faintly green and of very little else.

How much does Sabja Seeds cost per 100 g, delivered?
Sabja Seeds costs ₹219 for 200 g, or ₹109.50 per 100 g at the price on this page. That is ₹101 (32%) below the ₹320 MRP. Delivery is free once the goods in your order reach ₹2,000, which takes 10 packs of this size.
| Delivery zone | Charge for one 200 g pack |
|---|---|
| Zone A: within the 461 postal district (Narmadapuram) | ₹31 |

| Zone D: most of India, for example Delhi | ₹48 |
| Zone E: the North-East, Jammu & Kashmir, Ladakh, Kerala and Andaman | ₹64 |
Below ₹2,000, one 200 g pack is charged by delivery zone, measured from our dispatch pincode 461001. Each figure in the table includes 18% GST and is the prepaid price.
Cash on delivery adds 1.8% of the order value, with a ₹30 minimum before GST. One pack delivered prepaid to Delhi therefore costs ₹267 in total, or ₹133.50 per 100 g.
How long does Sabja Seeds keep, and how should you store it?
Store Sabja Seeds airtight and dark, about 12 months. NutriBlend seals each 200 g pack the day it is packed and dispatches it within 24 hours, so storage time starts close to the day it reaches you. Once opened, close it tightly after every use.
Heat, light, air and humidity are what shorten shelf life. Keep the pack closed between uses, away from the stove, and use a dry spoon. If anything smells sharp, bitter or like paint, it has oxidised and should not be eaten, whatever the date on the pack says.
At 30 g a day, one 200 g pack lasts about 7 days. Write the opening date on the pack, and if you cook in larger amounts, buy the size you will finish rather than the one that looks cheaper per gram.
