Carom/Bishop Seeds (Ajwain)

Ajwain is a seed-like fruit often used in Indian cooking as part of a spice mixture. It looks similar to fennel and cumin seeds and is highly fragrant, smelling like thyme. Its taste, however, is more like oregano and anise due to the bitter notes and strong flavor. Because of its pungency, a little goes a long way.  In Indian recipes, ajwain is used in curries and as a tadka in pakoras and dals, as well as a flavoring in breads.
