Cumin

Cumin with the scientific name Cuminum Cyminum L. belongs to the Umbelliferae family. Cumin is used as a spice. Cumin is one of the agricultural products that are produced in large quantities in Iran. This plant is one of the major agricultural products in terms of export and plays an important role in the country's economy. Cumin is produced in the provinces of Khorasan, Kerman, Semnan and East Azarbaijan, and these provinces are considered as major producers of this product. Our cumins are hand-picked to ensure only the highest quality product. They are sun-dried and carefully processed to preserve their potent aroma and distinct flavor. The result is a spice that is robust, warm, and slightly bitter, with a hint of citrus. The versatility of our Premium Iranian Cumin makes it an excellent addition to a variety of dishes. It can be used to season meats, vegetables, and legumes, or incorporated into spice blends for an extra kick of flavor.
