“Trachyspermum ammi”

Ajwain seeds, commonly known as Carom seeds or Bishop’s Weed, are a prized treasure in traditional Indian kitchens and Ayurvedic medicine. With a sharp, bitter flavor reminiscent of thyme and oregano, this seed is more than just a spice—it is a functional food. Whether you are tempering your daily lentil soup, making traditional ajwain parathas, or seeking relief from indigestion and gas, our fresh Ajwain seeds provide a robust flavor that dominates in the best way possible. The aroma and taste is very similar to Thyme with subtle variations in structure and piquancy.  It is very good for seasoning root vegetables, green beans, and lentils.
