Cumin seeds

This is one of our favorite herbs! Cumin is a close relative to parsley, dill, and caraway, but the flavor is truly unique. If you have ever had a warm inviting bowl of chicken tortilla soup or a comforting curry Indian dish, you will immediately recognize the flavor. Cumin adds a smokey, earthy, musty (in a good way) flavor to many Latin and Indian dishes. You may have also had it in some American chilis. 
 
Like fennel and dill, Cumin grows close to 12 inches tall and is loaded with fronds. Although It is mainly prized for its seeds, the fronds and flowers share the same flavor profile but in a more muted sense. In addition to being a culinary superstar, Cumin has also been used medicinally in teas and soups.
