Cumin
Cuminum cyminum
Warm season annual. It is amazing how many cultures use cumin! Grown for the earthy brown seeds (120 days to harvest) that are used whole or ground into powder, the taste is described in many ways - hot with a hint of sweetness, nutty, sharp, peppery, smoky and rich. Cumin adds bold flavor to chili powders, curry powders, garam masala and other spice blends. Known as jeera in India, cumin is wonderful in chicken, lamb and beef dishes, and adds a delicious twist to homemade breads and rolls. Aromatic foliage is also edible. You’ll love our recipe for Spanish rice inside this packet!
