Barjil Roasted Salted Mahboobi Seeds

Mahboobi watermelon seeds feature noticeably thinner, more brittle shells with darker outer contours compared to Jabani seeds, allowing effortless manual cracking. Commercially, Mahboobi is positioned as a high-turnover casual consumer snack, whereas Jabani seeds possess thicker shells and a slightly larger, denser kernel traditionally reserved for festive mixed nut assortments.

Food-grade refined salt is calibrated between 1.6% and 2.2% by weight in standard bulk orders, accentuating kernel flavor without harsh sodium sharpness. Roasting is conducted inside digitally monitored indirect hot-air drums (140-160°C) to prevent scorching the thin outer perimeter or discoloring the delicate internal embryo.

Wholesale MOQ is 15 master cartons of 10 kg each (150 kg net). Each 5-ply carton contains two 5 kg moisture-barrier pouches measuring 40x30x22 cm. Standard 100x120 cm export pallets carry 50 cartons (5 tiers of 10 boxes), totaling approximately 525 kg gross weight, wrapped with heavy gauge stretch film and strapping.

Every batch of Mahboobi seeds traverses suction air separators and vibratory gravity tables to eliminate lightweight hulls and immature seeds. Hollow seed rates in finished shipments are guaranteed under 1.5%, while physical impurities such as plant stems or dust are minimized to near zero, documented on the lot’s official Certificate of Analysis.

The firm natural seed coat shields internal lipids from direct ambient air exposure. When stored in dry conditions below 18°C, the seed oil's peroxide value remains below 2.0 meq O2/kg through the end of the 9th month—well below the national regulatory cap of 2.5 meq O2/kg—preventing off-flavors or lipid rancidity.

Yes, for contract volumes exceeding 2 metric tons, custom seasoned profiles—such as wild Persian hogweed (golpar) or natural lime and vinegar seasonings—can be produced in dedicated tumbling drums. Barjil also offers private label (OEM) packaging in 100g to 500g pillow or stand-up pouches printed with client branding.
