Cumin Seeds

Cumin seeds, botanically known as Cuminum cyminum, are an essential spice in many cuisines around the world, particularly in Indian, Middle Eastern, Mexican, and North African cooking. They belong to the parsley family and are native to the eastern Mediterranean region and Egypt.

Cumin seeds have a distinctive warm, earthy, and slightly peppery flavor, which intensifies when roasted or ground. They are often used whole or ground to add depth and aroma to a wide variety of dishes, including curries, stews, soups, rice dishes, and meat marinades.
