This 100g pack of Indus Ajwain Seeds is a handy size for a kitchen spice rack, giving a household enough for regular use across several months of cooking. Ajwain seeds are small, oval and pale brown, with a strong, slightly bitter aroma that mellows once cooked. Ajwain seeds are a familiar addition to Indian and Pakistani home cooking. They are often added whole to hot oil or ghee at the start of a dish, a technique known as tempering, before onions, lentils or vegetables go into the pan. They also feature in parathas, pakoras and savoury pastries, where a small pinch worked into the dough or batter adds flavour throughout. A little goes a long way, so measure carefully when adding to a recipe. Keep the seeds in a sealed container away from direct light and heat to help them stay fragrant for longer. Toasting the seeds briefly in a dry pan before use can help bring out their aroma before adding to curries, dals or vegetable dishes. This pack suits cooks who use ajwain seeds occasionally as well as those who reach for them often. Store any unused seeds in the original pack or an airtight jar once opened, ready for the next dish.
