And also as a medicinal plant, some positive properties are attributed to the plant. For centuries, many peoples have relied on its healing properties for hair, skin and intestines, as well as its possible positive influence on health. Yet the plant is hardly a thing of the past! Thanks to its deliciously nutty and somewhat pungent aroma, black cumin is now celebrated as a real trendy spice! You too can spice up your kitchen - buy our organic black cumin seeds now! Black cumin equals cumin - is that true? Here, too, confusion can easily arise: Although the two plants have very similar names, that is where the similarities end. Black cumin is a buttercup plant with a beautiful, light blue flower containing black seeds. Cumin belongs to the umbelliferae and looks herbaceous. Its seeds are brownish-green. And when it comes to taste, at the latest, the difference becomes even clearer: while the seeds of black cumin taste nutty and somewhat reminiscent of pepper, the latter are characterised by their very intense, bitter and pungent aroma. So don't worry if you're not the biggest cumin fan - black cumin seeds are certainly something for you anyway!
