Nutritional Benefits
Whole cumin seeds add deep, smoky warmth to dishes with very few calories. Cumin is a source of iron and contributes antioxidant plant compounds along with its signature aroma. Whole seeds keep their flavor longer than pre-ground cumin.
How to Cook
Toast whole seeds in a dry pan until fragrant to unlock their full aroma, then grind fresh or add whole. Bloom cumin in hot oil at the start of curries and dals, stir into taco meat and adobos, or blend into spice rubs and sausage. A little goes a long way.
