Cumin
Cumin seeds are available whole or ground. Cumin has a sharp and almost nutty flavor. Toasting cumin seeds in a dry skillet enhances their flavor.
Familiar to many as a spice in taco seasonings, cumin is a key ingredient in many other spice blends and pairs well with chickpeas, rice and vegetables. It also can be used as a rub for grilled meats, poultry and seafood.
