We at home love the different flavours that each spice brings out in what we make. My mother used to tell me - Cook when it’s coming from your heart. It translates to add a dash of cumin to your food to enhance the flavour. Cumin adds nutty, warm flavours to countless dishes. I use whole cumin seeds to add tadka, and ground roasted cumin to add while I’m cooking. Cumin adds an earthy tone and body to soups, daals, and curries. I generally use Cumin seeds produced by Organic Tattva.
