Caraway Seeds

Caraway Seeds

EverydayDried

Caraway seeds are a dried spice from the Apiaceae family, recognized for their earthy, anise-like flavor with subtle peppery notes. These crescent-shaped seeds are traditionally used to flavor rye bread, sauerkraut, and hearty stews, while their essential oils may aid digestion and reduce bloating. Rich in fiber and antioxidants, they retain their aromatic qualities best when stored whole and ground just before use.
