Cumin Seeds

Whole cumin seeds are perfect on top of salads or steamed rice. The true flavors come out when toasted first so the essential oils have a chance to bloom. Frying whole cumin seeds is also the first step in many curry recipes and have been used this way for thousands of years. We source our seeds from India and Turkey. Also available in ground cumin.

Details

With its potent, unique flavor, Whole Cumin is a crucial ingredient in many kinds of global cuisine. It’s essential in Indian curries, and is commonly roasted before being ground to give it a lovely nutty, toasted taste. The somewhat bitter, earthy flavor is crucial to good chili. Nearly all Mexican bean and meat recipes call for generous amounts of cumin (called "comino" in Mexican recipes), as do foods of various other Latin American countries. Several European countries use it to flavor their breads. Ingredients: Cumin seeds.

Delicious in so many things!

Wow can't believe it's taken me so long to sing the praises of the cumin seed. It's used in so many cultures and buying it in the seed form allows me to grind just what I need so the taste is more prominent in the final dish. From Chicken Enchiladas, homemade Hummus, Chili, Indian Aloo Gobi, Middle Eastern dishes and other foods cumin is a wonderful flavor profile to use.

The seeds work fine but do not dissolve LLP
