Origin

Grown in the dry plains of Rajasthan

Cumin is a cool-season crop that likes dry weather and well-drained soil, which is why the arid northwest of India grows so much of it. Our lots are bought in or near Rajasthan.

How to use it

TadkaAdd a teaspoon to hot ghee or oil until it crackles, then pour it over dal.
Jeera riceFry whole seeds in ghee before adding the rice and water.
Roast and grindDry-roast in a pan until fragrant, cool, and crush for raita and chaat.
Storing itKeep the lid tight, away from sunlight and the stove.

Questions

Why whole and not ground?

Whole seed keeps its aroma far longer. Toast and grind only what you need.

How do I toast it?

Use a dry pan on low heat for a minute or two, until it smells nutty and darkens slightly. Cool it before grinding.

Where does it come from?

Rajasthan, India. The origin is printed on the label.

How long will it keep?

The best-before date is printed on the jar. Keep the lid closed, in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and heat.

What is the price of 1 kg jeera?

Our 500 g jar is ₹499, which works out to ₹998 per kg (₹100 per 100 g). The 100 g jar is ₹129.
