To enhance many dishes, cumin is a highly aromatic spice that will bring unique flavors to your meals. Our tip? Sprinkle a few spoons of cumin on cooked carrots to make a flavorful mash.
Also known for its medicinal properties, cumin was used to treat digestive disorders because cumin “boosts” intestinal enzymes that help digest food more easily. Cumin also has anti-inflammatory properties and is used to relieve stomach pains, especially in South Asia where cumin seeds are infused in tea and drunk.
Cumin is the fruit of a plant that is about 30 cm tall, from which the seeds are harvested when ripe, in September or October. After harvesting, the stems are dried in the sun for two to three days and then beaten to detach the seeds, which are the famous cumin we all know in cooking. To obtain our cumin powder, the seeds are ground after drying for simple and flavorful use in cooking.
