Organic Cumin Powder

The pungent flavor of Organic Ground Cumin is earthy and nutty with warming aromas and just a touch of an herbal lemon essence to finish. Our Organic Ground Cumin provides a distinctive flavor that has been part of the spice trade for thousands of years. A close relative of fragrant fennel and caraway, cumin is native to the Mediterranean region and northern Africa. It was used by the ancient Egyptians as a seasoning, as medicine, and in the mummification process, and has been referenced in the world’s oldest “cookbook”, the Yale culinary tablets, a collection of recipes on clay tablets that were written in Mesopotamia in roughly 1700 BCE.
