Twitter, help me identify this spice! It was introduced to me in a Chiang Mai culinary school, used as part of a spice mixture for laap moo, but they didn’t know an English name. Can’t find it online, haven’t seen it in the US.

Huh. Looks like angelica seeds / hogweed seeds. Never seen them in Thai cooking (spent 4 months in Thailand this year), but I've seen it in middle eastern kitchens before iirc.

Ironically, others identified this as Heracleum persicum seed, which is “often erroneously sold as angelica seed”! figandquince.com/2015/06/12/gol
