The black assortment of cumin seeds is called Shahjeeara (Caraway Seeds). Sometimes used whole, the fruits have a pungent, anise-like flavour and odour that comes from essential oils, often carvone and limonene. In liquors, desserts, curry, casseroles and other foods, Caraway is also used. They have a nice scent, a fragrant taste, a very sharp flavour, and leave a warm feeling in the mouth.
