Shazeera (Shah Zeera)
The cheese that commonly contains caraway seeds is called "Havarti." This Danish cheese is often flavored with various herbs and spices, and caraway seeds add a distinct, slightly nutty flavor. Another cheese that may include caraway is "Münster," particularly in its German variation. Caraway seeds can enhance the taste profile of these cheeses, making them unique and flavorful.
Caraway seeds originate from the caraway plant, which is native to Western Asia and Europe.
Caraway seeds
You can incorporate caraway seeds into your cooking by toasting them lightly before adding them to dishes. This will enhance their flavor. You can also grind the seeds and use them as a spice in recipes that call for caraway seeds, such as rye bread or sauerkraut.
You can search for images of both caraway seeds and cumin seeds on the internet, or check in a botany or herb identification book. The main differences between the seeds are that caraway seeds are slightly curved with ridges, while cumin seeds are elongated and have a ridged surface.

To convert ground caraway to whole caraway seeds, a general rule of thumb is that 1 teaspoon of ground spice is roughly equivalent to 3 teaspoons of whole seeds. Therefore, for 8 teaspoons of ground caraway, you would need about 24 teaspoons of whole caraway seeds, which is equivalent to 8 tablespoons.
