Flavor & Usage

• Biryani: add 1/2 tsp to hot ghee/oil or the rice water for a royal aroma (best black cumin seeds for biryani in Germany).
• Curry bases: temper 1/4–1/2 tsp until seeds crackle, then add onions/ginger-garlic for shahi paneer or kurma.
• Breads & rice: sprinkle into naan/paratha dough or fry with basmati rice (Basmati Reis) for fragrant jeera rice.
• Masala blends: grind with cardamom, cloves, and cinnamon for a nuanced garam masala.
• Kashmiri dishes: enrich yakhni-style gravies and festive meals with a gentle, royal note.
• Tip: lightly roast seeds to release oils; use sparingly—little goes a long way.
