Indus Cumin Seeds are best known for tempering dal, adding an earthy warmth as soon as they hit hot oil. This 700g pack contains whole cumin seeds, ready to use straight from the bag in everyday Indian and Middle Eastern cooking. Whole cumin seeds are a storecupboard essential. Toss them into hot oil or ghee at the start of cooking to release their aroma before adding onions, garlic and other spices. They're used to temper dals, lentil soups and vegetable curries, and are just as good stirred into rice dishes like pilau or biryani. Dry-roast the seeds in a pan for a few minutes to bring out extra depth before grinding, then use the ground spice in spice blends, marinades or rubs for meat and vegetables. Cumin seeds also work well in slow-cooked stews, roasted vegetables and homemade spice mixes for tacos or chilli. A pinch added to bread dough or flatbreads gives a distinctive savoury note. Keep the seeds in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, in a sealed container or the resealable pack, to preserve their aroma. Whole seeds keep their flavour for longer than ground cumin, so grind small amounts as needed rather than buying pre-ground spice. This 700g bag is a practical size for households that cook with cumin regularly.
