Fenugreek is an interesting legume with many health properties. It is beneficial to lactating mothers, and is known to result in larger breasts in women. It also has the ability to help control blood sugar, and has numerous other reputed health benefits. Here are two pages, one enthusiastic, and one less so:

Fenugreek has a strong flavor, that is often described as maple syrup flavor, and reputedly has been used in imitation maple flavoring or syrup. This should make it an interesting and useful adjunct for beer. The question is how to use it.... crush it and soak it, sprout it, sprout and roast, cook it until it's soft as one would a bean.
No doubt fenugreek has been used by someone here. I intend to buy some and play with it. I definitely do not need a larger breast size ;-), but there are other health benefits, and the sprouts are said to be very interesting, and good if a tad bitter.
