Carvi, also known as Cumin, is a very popular spice in many kitchens from around the world. This spice is from Central Asia and has been used since antiquity in medicine and cooking. The Carvi is obtained from the seeds of the Carum Carvi plant, a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the family of the apiaceae. Carvi seeds are small, black and crescent -shaped. They have a characteristic aroma and a slightly bitter and peppery flavor. Carvi is widely used in Indian cuisine, where it is often mixed with other spices to prepare mixtures such as Garam Masala. It is also used in medium-eastern cuisine, meat dishes and stews, and in Mexican cuisine, where it is used in marinades and sauces.
