Kairusi Premium Cumin Seeds, also sold as jeera or seeragam, are whole bold-grade cumin seeds for tadka tempering, curries and dals. Hand-picked at peak maturity and naturally sun-dried, they hold a high essential-oil content for a warm, earthy, nutty aroma, so a small amount goes a long way. The seeds are 100% natural, free from fillers, additives and artificial colours, and cleaned and sorted before packing. Use them whole in hot-oil tempering, dry-roast them in a pan for 60 seconds, or roast and grind them for a fresh spice blend; cumin also seasons tacos, chili, hummus and lamb tagines, and makes jeera water. Cumin is a natural source of iron and antioxidants, contains cuminaldehyde, which stimulates enzymes, aids digestion and reduces bloating, supports the immune system and adds zero calories. The white pouch has a clear window showing slim, ridged greyish-brown seeds and is labelled "PREMIUM WHOLE CUMIN SEED". It comes in 50gm and 100gm packs. Catalogue code: WCS050 (50gm), WCS0100 (100gm)
