Nitra Cumin Seeds (Jeera)

About this item

Whole jeera for tadka and jeera rice. Nitra Cumin Seeds are whole jeera, the first spice into the pan in countless Indian kitchens.

Why cooks choose it

When cumin seeds hit hot ghee they sizzle and release a nutty, warm aroma that sets the tone for dal and sabzi. They are the star of jeera rice, add crunch to roasted chickpeas and grind into home-made garam masala.
