Cumin is a spice from the Apiaceae family, originally from Turkestan, Egypt and the Eastern Mediterranean. The fruit and seeds are normally used.
In addition to its culinary use, cumin has been shown to possess medicinal properties and has been used since antiquity; it is mentioned in the Sacred Scriptures, and according to Plinius, was one of the most prized spices. Dioscorides recommended it for treating diverse health problems, especially those of the stomach.
