Ajwain Seeds

Ajwain seeds, also known as carom seeds, originated in the Middle East, but are widely used in Indian, Pakistani, and Middle Eastern cuisines.

Ajwain seeds have a unique flavour, similar to thyme and cumin, with a hint of bitterness. They are commonly used in Indian cooking to enhance the taste of various dishes such as curries, bread, and pickles. Ajwain seeds are also known for their digestive properties and are used in herbal remedies for stomach-related issues.
