Frontier Co-op® Bulk Organic Whole Cumin Seeds are high-quality, organic cumin seeds with robust authentic flavor. One of the world's most popular spices, cumin is extremely aromatic, with a warm, spicy, earthy flavor and slight astringency. Cumin seeds are enjoyed around the world, but are especially popular in Middle Eastern, Indian and Mexican cuisines.
Product color and size may vary by lot due to varying growing conditions.
Cooking the whole seeds bring out their best flavor. Heat the seeds in hot oil just until they pop, then add to curries and other stew-like dishes. Or toast them lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat just until fragrant, then grind them in a mortar and pestle or spice grinder for fresh-ground flavor in any dish.
Suggested Uses
Use to enhance flavor and soften the heat of fiery chilies in curries and sauces. Use in pickling. Crush the seeds to use in dry rubs, chili soup, and marinades.
