Cumin or jeera is said to have originated from the Mediterranean region and was known to the ancient Egyptians and Greeks too before it found its way into India through trade. While today it’s every Indian kitchen’s staple spice, cumin is in fact quite a globetrotting spice, with many Mexican, Middle Eastern and North African recipes incorporating the rich flavours of this spice too. Cumin has immense health benefits; it acts as a digestive stimulant, it’s a powerful antioxidant and is also said to be beneficial for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. Its slightly sweet, warm, and nutty flavour adds great taste to every dish.
