Translations:Cumin/2/en

Cumin (/ˈkʌmɪn/ (listen), /ˈkjuːmɪn/ (listen); US also /ˈkuːmɪn/ (listen); Cuminum cyminum) is a flowering plant in the family Apiaceae, native to the Irano-Turanian Region. Its seeds – each one contained within a fruit, which is dried – are used in the cuisines of many cultures in both whole and ground form. Although cumin is used in traditional medicine, there is no high-quality evidence that it is safe or effective as a therapeutic agent.
