R40.00
Pharma Germania Natural Products Caraway Seeds are whole dried seeds of Carum carvi, a traditional culinary and herbal botanical used throughout Europe and parts of Asia.
Caraway is particularly valued as a carminative and digestive herb. Traditionally consumed after meals or prepared as an infusion, it has been used to support digestion and ease occasional sensations of fullness, bloating, intestinal gas and mild digestive discomfort.
The seeds contain naturally occurring volatile oils, with carvone and limonene among their characteristic aromatic constituents. These compounds contribute to Caraway’s distinctive flavour and have been investigated for their digestive and antispasmodic properties.
Caraway Seeds can also be used as a culinary spice in breads, vegetables, soups, stews and other savoury dishes.

Whole seeds can be gently crushed immediately before preparing an infusion to help release their aromatic constituents, or incorporated directly into culinary recipes.
