Carum carvi, commonly known as caraway, is a member of the Apiaceae family, valued for its warming and aromatic seeds. These seeds are widely used as a spice in culinary dishes and baking, adding a distinctive flavor to rye bread, cabbage dishes, pickles, soups, teas, liqueurs, and spirits. Caraway is a staple in Indian, Dutch, German, Russian, and Scandinavian cuisines, where it serves as a more aromatic and slightly bitter alternative to cumin. The seeds can be used whole or freshly ground, often added at the end of cooking to avoid bitterness, enhancing both sweet and savory dishes. Caraway is also known as Krishna jiraka.
