Steenbergs Organic Cumin - jeera - is one of the musts of everybody's spice cupboard. Organic cumin is also known as white cumin or cummin and is one of the oldest and most popular spices in the world with its distinctive smokey taste. Steenbergs organic cumin is a key ingredient in curries.
Steenbergs organic cumin seeds are 5mm in kength, tapered at both ends, slightly curved and measure about 2mm thick. Steenbergs organic cumin seeds range in colour from pale brown to khaki and have a dullish looking colour to them. Each organic cumin seed has about 9 fine ridges along its length and a hair like tail. The aroma of organic cumin is pungent, warm, earthy, lingering and sweet, while the flavour of organic cumin is pungent, warming, earthy and slightly - but pleasantly - bitter.
Suggested uses:
Add Steenbergs organic cumin to a variety of dishes, from curries (where it is a key ingredient) to chillis. It's delicious in vegetable casseroles and is fantastic with cabbage, just throw a few seeds on after cooking. For an extra special treat, make your own fresh organic cumin powder by toasting some Steenbergs organic cumin seeds and crushing them in a pestle and mortar.
