About this product

Essential Whole Spice

Cumin Seeds, commonly known as Jeera, release a distinctive warm and earthy aroma when roasted or tempered in hot oil or ghee.

Best For

  • Tadka for dals, curries and vegetables
  • Jeera rice, pulao and savoury snacks
  • Raita, chaats, pickles and homemade masalas

How to Use

Use whole for tempering, or dry-roast lightly and grind for a fresher cumin flavour. Avoid over-roasting, which can make the seeds taste bitter.

Storage

Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and moisture.

Best for

Tempering, rice dishes, curries, vegetables and spice blends
