Cuminum cyminum, commonly known as Cumin, is a versatile and aromatic herb that is a member of the parsley family. The plant grows to a height of 10-12 inches and has a slender stem with thread-like leaflets. They are harvested by hand and are an annual herbaceous plant. The seeds of this plant are used as a condiment and have a hot and aromatic flavor that makes it an important ingredient in curries, biscuits, cakes, and bread. Cumin also has therapeutic properties and benefits the digestive system while acting as a stimulant to the sexual organs. It is known to have an antibacterial, antirheumatic and carminative effect and is used in the treatment of flatulence and bloating. The essential oil of this plant is also used in perfumery and flavoring beverages. Cumin is an adaptable plant that thrives on well-drained sandy and medium soils, and prefers a sunny, sheltered position. It is widely cultivated in India, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkey, Morocco, Egypt, Syria, Mexico, Chile, and China. So, if you want to add a unique, aromatic flavor, and therapeutic benefits to your cuisine, try Cuminum cyminum.
