Ab CHF 10.–
100% pure ingredients, no additives
Mixed and processed by hand
A genuine Swiss manufactory
Rubbed Schabzigerklee brings you exactly that alpine herb note in your food, the one that instantly makes bread, cheese and butter taste rounder and more aromatic. Finely rubbed and cleanly processed at Manufaktur Funke – ideal for sourdough, spreads and anything that calls for a subtle, non-dominant seasoning.
Category: Herbs
Taste: delicately tart, hay-like, slightly bitter
Use: bread doughs, cheese fillings, dips, butter
Format: 15g jar / 100g stand-up pouch
My tip: Work a pinch into sourdough – it brings depth and that typical alpine aroma you notice at once but can’t quite explain.
Origin & Story
In my 2-star restaurant we introduced a dedicated bread course – a deliberate moment for attention and appreciation. We season our sourdough bread with, among other things, Schabzigerklee (blue fenugreek). The herb adds a herby, slightly hay-like note reminiscent of alpine freshness. Schabzigerklee has long been used in Swiss cooking – in cheese or bread, for instance – but was barely noticed for years. Unfairly so, because its aroma brings depth without ever being dominant.
Highlights
Only the tender leaf parts are used, carefully rubbed. The aroma is delicately tart, slightly bitter, with hints of hay and meadow. Schabzigerklee is ideal for flavouring doughs, cheese blends or dips – especially combined with dairy products. Processing is single-batch at Manufaktur Funke. The exact cut quality remains my secret.
Quality
The Schabzigerklee comes from controlled cultivation in Germany. Only green, fresh leaves are processed – no technical aids, no additives, no anti-caking agents.
The best spices have always inspired me to create new dishes. Only the best is good enough to reach the very top – for you, in your kitchen.
100% natural. Just the way I use it myself, every day.
Tip from Tobias Funke
I like using Schabzigerklee in bread dough with a sourdough starter – it brings depth, structure and a typically herby profile. It also works brilliantly in cheese fillings or scattered over flakes of butter.
