Dry Ajwain Seeds, also known as Carom Seeds, are aromatic, brownish-grey seeds derived from the ajwain plant. These seeds are known for their intense, thyme-like flavor and a slightly bitter, spicy taste. Widely used in Indian and Middle Eastern cooking, dry ajwain seeds enhance the flavor of parathas, snacks, pickles, and lentil dishes.
Beyond their culinary use, they are highly valued in Ayurvedic and traditional medicine for aiding digestion, relieving flatulence, and soothing cold-related symptoms. Naturally rich in thymol, these seeds possess antibacterial and antifungal properties, making them a potent and health-supportive kitchen spice.
