Cumin

As a matter of fact, the history of cumin goes back over 5000 years. Besides, cumin is one of those vital spices that you can find in almost every kitchen as it has a potent, unique and somewhat bitter flavor that is essential in many famous dishes, especially Indian curries. Cumin seeds are thin, yellowish brown, elongated ovals, and are often roasted before grinding, giving them a nutty, toasted flavor. When it comes to its nutritional profile, cumin provides high amounts of fat, protein, and dietary fiber. B vitamins, vitamin E, and several dietary minerals, especially iron, magnesium, and manganese, are also present in substantial Daily Value amounts. In addition, cumin contains components that counter some of the long-term effects of diabetes.
