Here are some suggestions on how to use Dried Citrus Seeds:

Culinary applications: Dried Citrus Seeds are occasionally used in cooking and baking, particularly in Chinese cuisine. They can be added to soups, stews, or sauces to impart a subtle citrus flavour and aroma. They are often used in dishes with duck or pork to help balance the richness of the meat.

Tea blends: Dried Citrus Seeds can be used to create unique and flavourful tea blends. They can be combined with other herbs, such as chamomile or mint, to create a soothing and aromatic tea. The seeds are often roasted or toasted before being added to tea blends for enhanced flavour.

Potpourri and sachets: Dried Citrus Seeds have a pleasant citrus scent and can be used in potpourri mixes or placed in sachets to add fragrance to drawers, closets, or rooms. They can be combined with other dried herbs, flowers, or spices to create customised scents.

Craft projects: Dried Citrus Seeds can be used in various craft projects. They can be incorporated into homemade candles, soaps, or bath salts to add texture and visual interest. The seeds can also be used for jewelry-making or added to decorative ornaments.

Pest repellent: Some people believe that dried Citrus Seeds have insect-repellent properties. Placing them in areas prone to pests, such as closets or pantry shelves, may help deter insects like moths or ants. However, it's important to note that their effectiveness as a pest repellent may vary.

Gardening: Dried Citrus Seeds can be saved and used for gardening purposes. They can be planted to grow Citrus trees or used as part of a seed collection. Citrus seeds can also be crushed and added to the soil as a natural fertiliser.
