Cumin (zireh-e sabz — literally “green cumin”) is distinct from caraway (zireh-e siyah — “black cumin”): both are called “zireh” in Persian but have distinct flavours, and cumin is the warmer, earthier, and more universally used of the two. Whole cumin seeds are toasted in a dry pan before use to unlock their full aromatic depth, then used whole for a textural burst of flavour or lightly crushed and ground for a more evenly distributed spice note. Whole seeds are the preferred format for tempering into hot oil at the start of a dish, for topping Persian breads, for adding to torshi and pickles, and for use in spice mixes where freshly toasted and ground cumin delivers a far more vivid, alive flavour than pre-ground. Sadaf is one of the most trusted brands in Persian and Middle Eastern pantry essentials.
