Cumin

Cumin holds a nutty flavor with a hint of spice which tastes even better once highly heated or toasted, making it an essential ingredient in many famous cuisines in the Middle East and the Mediterranean, as well as in Mexican cuisines. 

Go creative and try it on meat marinades, toss in stir-fried veggies, or incorporate in a meat rub comprised of chili powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper plus a little zest of lemon. Once you try this spice, expect a whole lot of pleasure-worthy delicacies right at your kitchen!
