Cumin is the second most popular spice in the world after black pepper. Used for their specific aroma (owing to essential oil Cuminaldehyde), they are used right from Indian Masalas to varieties of Mexican, Chinese, Mediterranean and Latino cuisines. There is virtually no kitchen on the planet where this popular spice is not used. However its aroma differs from country to country where it is grown and the Indian variety is undoubtedly the leader.
