Organic Ground Cumin is a wonderfully fragrant spice.

Organic Ground Cumin is the most commonly used spice in the world after black pepper.  If you are already a cumin fan then this won’t come as a surprise to you, because cumin is seriously tasty and wonderfully versatile.  Ground cumin gives an all round flavour and blends easily into a range of textures.  If you want a more dramatic hit and a tasty crunch, choose our organic cumin seed.

This popular spice is used across the globe and is well known for its use in Mexican, Indian and Middle-Eastern dishes.  Originally Cumin Seed was native to Egypt and it still holds medicinal and cultural significance there.

Cumin is nutritious as well as delicious, it has high levels of a range of important nutrients including thiamin (B1), iron, calcium and manganese.  If you haven’t tried using cumin then making fragrant vegetable curry is a great place to start.

Family Tip:

  1. Cumin goes really well in curry and chilli recipes.
  2. Cumin makes delicious salad dressing.  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.
