About this product
Ajowan/ Carom seeds (or Bishop’s weed as it is sometimes referred to) is mostly used in Indian cuisine. Its intense herbal thyme flavour means that it is particularly good in starchy foods such as savoury pastries or breads. Start by frying the seeds in oil to release their nutty flavour and then you can add it to curries, potato or green vegetable dishes or desserts. For a stronger flavour crush the seeds in a mortar & pestle before use. A great ingredient for vegetarian foods. Ajowan seeds combine well with Tamarind, Coriander, Cumin and Fennel.
