Description

Cumin provides a key flavor to the cuisines of many cultures. It has a warm, earthy aroma and an intense flavor with citrus notes. One of the most consumed spices after chiles and peppercorns, cumin is as a key ingredient in many curries, chili, and dry rubs recipes, and is a fundamental base spice in Indian, Middle Eastern, African, and Mexican cooking. In Indian cuisine, spices such as cumin and coriander are most often toasted whole in oil or clarified butter rather than used in a powder form. You can use the toasted cumin seeds whole, or you can bring out even more flavor by crushing them slightly in a mortar and pestle. Cumin seeds are also extremely rich in iron.
