Ajowan Seeds

Ajwain, a staple in Indian kitchens, goes by many names, including carom and bishop’s weed. Though often mistaken for seeds, ajwain is actually a seed-like fruit, closely related to cumin, dill, and fennel. Its distinct, herbaceous aroma is similar to thyme, making it a versatile addition to countless recipes.

Just a pinch of ajwain can transform a dish, adding layers of flavor to everything from main courses and soups to desserts and teas. Beyond its bold taste, ajwain is prized for its health benefits too.
