What does caraway taste like?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Caraway tastes pretty much identical to Aniseed. It also tastes just like fennel. In fact it would be no exaggeration to say that even the most cultured gourmet would find it nearly impossible to distinguish between the three. Feel free to substitute them for each other regardless of the situation.

Hope this helps,

Can caraway seeds cause you to fail a drug test?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No. That was poppy seeds, and the current "cutoff" for opium--the amount of opium metabolite you need in your system to trigger a drug test--is high enough that poppy seeds, so long as you're not eating them by the spoonful, won't trigger a positive test.

Caraway seeds are fine, though.

What to substitute for caraway?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer

Cumin seeds would be the most common, and the two are often confused in recipes and when translating from foreign languages. The flavour would be reminiscent of curry.


Other flavours substitutes would include star anise, anise, and cardamom; these are all quite strongly flavoured and you should try half the amount suggested for caraway.


Celery seed has a mild flavour that might be preferred to caraway in bread. Sesame and poppy seeds are used in both sweet baking and savory items.


Just substitute whatever you like best, or leave it out entirely. It won't be the same as caraway, but it will still be good.
