The Spice of Life: Caraway


You could mistake a caraway plant at a quick glance to a carrot—with its fi nely divided and feathery type leaves and indeed it is part of this family producing seeds which are about 2mm in length.


These seeds are harvested for essential oils, soaps and perfumes and used to fl avour dishes and drinks. Caraway seeds are popular because of their pungent anise fl avour and aroma.


The roots of the plant, which grows up to 30cm high, can be cooked as a root vegetable in the same way as parsnips or carrots.


In gardening, the Caraway plant is useful because the strong scent attracts wasps and fl ies to its fl owers thus protecting other crops from these pests.


Also used for: • Assistance with stomach complaints • Added to lotions and soaps • Used in Indian cuisine
