Gregg's Ground Cumin
An ancient spice, cumin is native to the Middle East and has
been used for the past 5,000 years. Cumin is now grown in many
places as it is rather easy to grow and adapts well to many
climates. The cumin plant is harvested by hand.
The spice is one of the most commonly used spices in India,
where it is used in many curry spice mixes and as such, has almost
come to represent (to Westerners) the 'curry' flavour.
Ground cumin is great for adding to braised meat dishes and also
works well rubbed into roasts with other ingredients such as honey
or garlic.
