Family Tip:

  1. Cumin goes really well in curryĀ and chilli recipes.
  2. Cumin makes delicious salad dressing. Ā Try it with tahini, garlic and salt with water to blend!
  3. We like to sprinkle it over sprouted mung beans with a twist of Himalayan pink salt and a drizzle of olive oil for a tasty snack.
