How to use

Add a pinch to snack dough, parathas or tempering. Boil in water for omam water.

How to store

Store in an airtight jar in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and moisture. Whole spices keep their aroma for longer than powders. Use within the best-before date on the pack.

Questions

How much should I use?

A pinch or 1/2 tsp is enough.

Is it the same as cumin?

No. Ajwain is sharper and thyme-like.
