Kmin rzymski (kumin) mielony

Description

Ground cumin is a fine, granular powder with a warm, earthy, and slightly nutty note, featuring a distinct, spicy-aromatic depth. Its color ranges from yellowish-brown to darker shades depending on the degree of roasting; briefly toasting it brings out a more intense aroma and flavor, adding a bold, slightly smoky accent to dishes. As a spice, it provides trace amounts of iron, manganese, fiber, and antioxidants that aid digestion and have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, although the benefits are moderate with culinary use. Ground cumin pairs perfectly with Indian, Middle Eastern, and Mexican cuisine, complementing meat dishes, vegetables, soups, sauces, curries, marinades, and bread. Store it in an airtight, opaque container in a cool, dry place away from light and heat; it retains its best aroma for about 6 months, while whole seeds last longer.
