Caraway seeds, derived from the caraway plant (Carum carvi), are a staple spice in European and Middle Eastern cuisines. Known for their warm, earthy flavor with a hint of citrus, they are commonly used in breads, stews, sauerkraut, and spice blends. Nutritionally, caraway seeds are a rich source of dietary fiber, essential minerals such as iron, magnesium, and zinc, and also contain antioxidants. They provide small amounts of vitamins, including vitamin A and several B vitamins. Caraway seeds are noted for their digestive benefits, often helping to alleviate bloating and indigestion. They also contain phytonutrients that may support overall gut health and promote immune function. While generally healthy, these seeds are energy-dense, so portion control is advised in calorie-conscious diets. Their unique flavor and nutritional profile make them both a culinary and health-enhancing addition to many dishes.
