Cumin (Cuminum cyminum)

 

Cumin is a herb and is used as a spice, in many foods from different cultures around the world. The plant itself is an annual.

Nothing beats fresh seasonings, so make sure you grow your own! Cumin (Cuminum Cyminum) is grown for its seeds, which are ground into a spice for curry, stews and other dishes from Mexico and the Middle East.

Grows to only 6 inches tall; ready to harvest when heads turn brown. Self-seeding annual.

 

Planting and Harvesting Tips:

Sow indoors — 1/4 inch deep — several weeks prior to the last frost date in spring. Transplant seedlings outsides when temperatures are warm and all danger of frost has passed. May also be direct sown in prepared beds when soil is warm. Space 3-4 inches apart and water regularly. Plants grow to about 12-inches in height and take 100-150 days to harvest.

Watch closely for heads to turn brown — the time to harvest — they’ll split and spill to the ground.

Gather up the pods before that happens and put them in a paper bag. Hang upside down until pods are completely dry and remove the contents. Crush or grind just before use and store the remainder in an air-tight container.
