Ricinus : Ricinus communis can vary greatly in its growth habit and appearance. The variability has been increased by breeders who have selected a range of cultivars for leaf and flower colours, and for oil production. It is a fast-growing, suckering shrub that can reach the size of a small tree, around 12 m (39 ft), but it is not cold hardy. The glossy leaves are 15 45 cm (5.9 17.7 in) long, long-stalked, alternate and palmate with five to twelve deep lobes with coarsely toothed segments. In some varieties they start off dark reddish purple or bronze when young, gradually changing to a dark green, sometimes with a reddish tinge, as they mature. The leaves of some other varieties are green practically from the start, whereas in yet others a pigment masks the green color of all the chlorophyll-bearing parts, leaves, stems and young fruit, so that they remain a dramatic purple-to-reddish-brown throughout the life of the plant. Plants with the dark leaves can be found growing next to those with green leaves, so there is most likely only a single gene controlling the production of the pigment in some varieties. The stems and the spherical, spiny seed capsules also vary in pigmentation. The fruit capsules of some varieties are more showy than the flowers. The green capsule dries and splits into three sections, forcibly ejecting seeds The flowers are borne in terminal panicle-like inflorescences of green or, in some varieties, shades of red, Monoicous flowers without petals. The male flowers are numerous, yellowish-green with prominent creamy stamens; the female flowers, borne at the tips of the spikes, lie within the immature spiny capsules, are relatively few in number and have prominent red stigmas. The fruit is a spiny, greenish (to reddish-purple) capsule containing large, oval, shiny, bean-like, highly poisonous seeds with variable brownish mottling. Castor seeds have a warty appendage called the caruncle, which is a type of elaiosome. The caruncle promotes the dispersal of the seed by ants (myrmecochory). Product origin : india
Cumin Seed: Cumin is the dried seed of the herb Cuminum cyminum, a member of the parsley family. The cumin plant grows to 30 50 cm (12 20 in) tall and is harvested by hand. It is an annual herbaceous plant, with a slender, glabrous, branched stem that is 20 30 cm (8 12 in) tall and has a diameter of 3 5 cm (11/4 2 in).[ Each branch has two to three sub branches. All the branches attain the same height, so the plant has a uniform canopy. The stem is coloured grey or dark green. The leaves are 5 10 cm (2 4 in) long, pinnate or bipinnate, with thread-like leaflets. The flowers are small, white or pink, and borne in umbels. Each umbel has five to seven unbelts. The fruit is a lateral fusiform or ovoid achene 4 5 mm (1/6 /5 in) long, containing two mericarps with a single seed. Cumin seeds have eight ridges with oil canals. They resemble caraway seeds, being oblong in shape, longitudinally ridged, and yellow-brown in colour, like other members of the Apiaceae (Umbelliferae) family such as caraway, parsley, and dill Product origin : india
Sesame Seed : Sesame seed is one of the oldest oil seed crops known, domesticated well over 3000 years ago. Sesamum has many other species, most being wild and native to sub-saharan africa. Sesamum indicum, the cultivated type, originated in india and is tolerant to drought-like conditions, growing where other crops fail. Sesame has one of the highest oil contents of any seed. With a rich, nutty flavour, it is a common ingredient in cuisines across the world. Like other nuts and foods, it can trigger allergic reactions in some people. Product origin : india
Guar Gum : Guar gum, also called guaran, is a galactomannan polysaccharide extracted from guar beans that has thickening and stabilizing properties useful in the food and hydraulic fracturing industries. The guar seeds are de husked, milled and screened to obtain the guar gum.[1] it is typically produced as a free-flowing, off-white powder Product origin : india

Saffron : Saffron (pronounced / saffron / or / saffron /) is a spice derived from the flower of crocus sativus, commonly known as the saffron crocus. The vivid crimson stigmas and styles, called threads, are collected and dried to be used mainly as a seasoning and colouring agent in food. Saffron, long among the world's most costly spices by weight, was probably first cultivated in or near greece.Sativus is probably a form of c. Cartwrightianus, that emerged by human cultivators selectively breeding plants for unusually long stigmas in late bronze age crete. it slowly propagated throughout much of eurasia and was later brought to parts of north africa, north america, and oceania. Saffron's taste and iodoform or hay-like fragrance result from the chemicals picrocrocin and safranal. It also contains a carotenoid pigment, crocin, which imparts a rich golden-yellow hue to dishes and textiles. Its recorded history is attested in a 7th-century bc assyrian botanical treatise compiled under ashurbanipal and it has been traded and used for over four millennia. Iran now accounts for approximately 90% of the world production of saffron. Product origin : india
Castor Oil : Castor oil is a vegetable oil obtained by pressing the seeds of the castor oil plant (ricinus communis).[1] the common name castor oil, from which the plant gets its name, probably comes from its use as a replacement for castoreum, a perfume base made from the dried perineal glands of the beaver (castor in latin). Castor oil is a colorless to very pale yellow liquid with a distinct taste and order. Its boiling point is 313 c (595 f) and its density is 961 kg/m3. It is a triglyceride in which approximately 90 percent of fatty acid chains are ricinoleates. Oleate and linoleates are the other significant components. Castor oil and its derivatives are used in the manufacturing of soaps, lubricants, hydraulic and brake fluids, paints, dyes, coatings, inks, cold resistant plastics, waxes and polishes, nylon and perfumes.
