Roasted Stoneground Cumin Seed

Botanical name: Cuminum cyminum

We handcraft our Roasted Stoneground Cumin Seed using Organic whole Cumin Seed sourced from India to ensure purity and quality of our product.

The whole Cumin Seed is freshly dry roasted on an iron skillet, on receipt of your order. A traditional roasting technique is used to ensure consistency and uniformity of the roasting. The roasted spice is then stoneground to produce a spice with an intense spicy flavour and aroma. Stoneground spices have a naturally uneven, earthy texture that adds a rustic mouth feel. This is immediately packed in a recyclable, amber coloured, glass jar, with an airtight induction seal, to maximise freshness of the product – you will get an intense aroma of fresh roasted and ground Cumin Seed when you open the jar.

Freshly Roasted and Stoneground Cumin Seed has an intensely warm, aromatic and spicy flavour which compliments savoury dishes. It is commonly used in Indian cooking as well as featuring in Asian, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean dishes. It can be used in beans, curries, bread, cabbage, pungent cheeses, couscous, chicken, eggplant, lamb, lentils, onions, potatoes, rice, sauerkraut and squash. It can be used as a spicy garnish on appetisers, savoury yoghurt or a spicy beverage. The rustic texture and intense flavour will lift any dish and delight your friends and family.

The amount of this spice should be carefully calibrated as it can be intense.
